Read-only licenses

If "Use read-only license" is set for the user, and the database only contains write licenses, the user cannot be assigned a license. The "Use read-only license" role expects a correspondingly valid license in the license overview.

If you want to give a user read access to selected folders, elements, or data cards, these authorizations must be set in the "Folder", "Element configuration", or "Data card" tabs for the corresponding user or role.

If a user is to have read-only access, the more cost-effective read-only license can be installed and used.

Users who are logged into TiCon with a read-only license cannot create, rename, delete, or duplicate anything. Any mass changes are also not possible. A user with a read-only license has read-only access to all data for which they are authorized via Explorer and the search.

Note:

If a user is assigned a read-only license when logging in to TiCon, but does not have the role "Use read-only license" but the role "Use full license", they still only have read access to all data in TiCon to which they are entitled.

(A read-only license is only assigned to a full-license user if all the existing write licenses have already been assigned.)
