About access management about-access-management
Journey Orchestration allows you to assign a set of permissions to your users to define which part of the interface they can access.
They can be managed by Administrators that have access to the Admin console. For more information on the Admin console, refer to this documentation.
To be able to access Journey Orchestration, a user must be:
- part of a Journey Orchestration product profile associated to Journey Orchestration permissions.
- part of an Adobe Experience Platform product profile. There is no mandatory permission to have. The user should have the profile management permission to be able to create and edit platform segments from Journey Orchestration interface. For more on this, refer to this page.
In the Admin console, you can assign one of the following out-of-the-box product profiles to your users:
-
Limited Access User: user with read-only access to journeys and reports. This product profile includes the following permissions:
- Read journeys
- Read reports
-
Administrators: user with access to the administration menus with the possibility to manage journeys, events and reports. This product profile includes the following permissions:
- Manage journeys
- Publish journeys
- Manage events, data sources and actions
- Manage reports
note note NOTE Administrators is the only product profile which allows creation, edition and publication of transactional messaging (or messaging templates) in Adobe Campaign Standard. This product profile is needed if you use Adobe Campaign Standard to send messages in your journeys. It should not be renamed in the Admin console. -
Standard User: user with basic access such as journey management. This product profile includes the following permissions:
- Manage journeys
- Publish journeys
- Manage reports
- Read Events, data sources and actions
You can also create your own product profiles if the out-of-the-box profiles are not enough to manage your users.
Users must always be linked to a product profile allowing you to assign them specific build-in permissions such as:
- Read journeys
- Read reports
- Manage events, data sources and actions
- Read events, data sources and actions
- Manage journeys
- Publish journeys
- Manage reports
You can find below the compatibility between permissions and Journey Orchestration’s different functionalities.
