Is it possible to give some users just the permission of deleting AssetVersion entity ?

[YuChen]

Hi all,

We want to provide end-users the capability of deleting asset version entity only. This means they're not able to delete higher level entities like Task, AssetBuild and other hierarchical Folders. Is it possible to set ftrack web page in this way ?

Hi @YuChen,

This is absolutely possible.

Go to System Settings -> Security -> Roles and edit the particular role you'd like to restrict. Then, make sure the "Delete project" and "Delete objects" permissions are unselected but that "Delete versions" is selected. I think this will result in the behaviour you're looking for.

Here is more information on permissions in ftrack:

Hi @Patrick Boucher,

Thanks for the reply first.

Here comes an advanced request and I'm not sure if ftrack already provide this function.

We would like to give team leaders the capability to delete any asset version entity, but we don't want individual artist to be able to delete anything not published by themselves (i.e. they could only delete asset versions published by themselves). Is it possible to organize the permission rule in this way ?

Hi,

It is currently not possible to have permissions conditionally change behaviour based on the data of a particular record so the scenario you envision wouldn't work.

I've added your use case to our feature request concerning conditional permission support.

Cheers,
Patrick
