- Site Admins: Can edit/publish any pages/assets (including forms) within the site and can access site reports and edit/update tags
- Site Authors: Can edit/publish any pages/assets within the site
- Form Authors: Can edit/publish Forms, often used in conjunction with Site Authors, but must be separatly specified during security request.
- Site View-Only: Can only review pages in "author" environment. Can NOT make any changes to pages or assets.
*Other rights: There are more granular groups and rights which can be applied if necessary, but generally are not encouraged to be used unless required. Contact DoIT.WebServices@illinois.gov If you have a specific security related need for more granualar security.
Requesting Access
Requesting access to AEM requires a Service Now ticket submitted by an Agency Technology Service Requestor or ATSR. Supervisor's and management can send an email to DoIT.ATSR.Telecom@Illinois.gov who will route their reqeust to the proper ATSR for your agency. Your ATSR will submit IT Service Request for access to the agency website/assets/forms on the AEM platform.
Information should include:
- A comment to route the ticket to the DoIT Web Services Team; and
- What access needs to be granted (path to sites/assets/forms & level of control: admin, author, restricted author, etc.); and
- Whenever possible, also including "permissions should mirror "user xyz" is extremely helpful for the security team when assigning permissions.
