How are Ambition's specific permissions defined?

Available Permission Types

System Permission Sets

Ambition has three system permission sets:

• Employee
• Manager
• Admin

The admin permission set cannot be changed and includes all available permissions.

The manager and employee permission sets can be customized to your organization's needs.

Custom Permission Sets

Ambition offers the ability to create custom permission sets as well, but note custom permission sets can only add permissions. To take away a permission, the changes would be made to system permission sets.

For example, a person in sales enablement may need to create managed programs and check-in templates for the entire organization, but they don’t need full manager or admin access. A custom permission set with the precise extra permissions can be created to allow for more specific access rather than upgrading an employee with manager or admin permissions.

Individual Access

In addition to system and custom permission sets, Ambition allows users to receive specific levels of individual access. Individual access is ideal for situations where a specific user needs one or two specific additional permissions.

For example, a member of the ETL team needs access to data integrations in order to access an API authorization token. Rather than grant full admin access or create a custom permission set that won't be needed for any other team members, the ETL team member can be given the specific permission of "Integrations: Edit" in order to access the needed API token.
