Collaborator security
Cloud Pak for Data as a Service provides attribute-based access control to protect workspaces such as projects and catalogs. You control access to workspaces by assigning roles and by restricting collaborators.
Collaborator roles
Everyone working in Cloud Pak for Data as a Service is assigned a role that determines the workspaces that they can access and the tasks that they can perform. Collaborator roles control access to projects, deployment spaces, catalogs, and categories using permissions specific to the role. Roles are assigned in Cloud Pak for Data as a Service to provide Admin, Editor, or Viewer permissions. Categories have additional Owner and Reviewer roles with slightly different permissions than Admin, Editor and Viewer.
Users also have an IAM Platform access role for the Cloud account and they may also have an IAM Service access role for workspaces. To understand how the roles provide secure access, see Roles in Cloud Pak for Data as a Service.
To understand the permissions for each collaborator role, see Project collaborator roles.
