Browse collection

Allows navigating to a collection, browsing the collection contents (projects), and opening projects (in the 3D viewer) that are contained in the collection. 

This is the lowest level permission and the intention is that it essentially grants the user view-only access to the projects within the collection.

Edit projects

Allows changing and saving contents of projects. 

This specifically excludes the ability to change the project's metadata records (e.g. spatial reference or capture date). 
Examples of the types of operations permitted includes adding Points of Interest; saving measurements and bookmarks; adding datasets

Download from collection

Allows viewing and downloading the original source files for a project. It also grants the ability to export (clip and ship) selected regions of a point cloud from withing the viewer. 

You would normally assign this as an additional level of permission in conjunction with Browse collection (it would not be useful to assign Download from collection without also assigning Browse collection).

Edit metadata

Allows users to make changes to a project's metadata - such as the capture data, dataset types, etc. 

Due to the criticality of project metadata, having a specific edit permission facilitates the ability to restrict such changes to a small number of privileged users.

Manage collection

This permission grants a number of additional levels of access and can be thought of as granting "admin/power user" status to the user/team. The following additional actions are enabled with granting of this permission:

• Allow movement of projects into and out of this collection. 

• Allow archive and delete individual projects within the collection

When moving a project to another collection, the user would also require Manage collection permission on the target collection.
Bulk archive/delete from the company point clouds page can only be done by users in the Administrators team

Share collection

Allows creation of Share links to projects in the collection, or to share the collection.

Upload to collection

Allows uploading of new data into projects in the collection. 

This means that when users access the "Upload" form, they will see this collection as an available destination collection.
If the user has no collections where they have Upload to collection permission, then they will not see the Upload button.
This can be used to create "upload-only" accounts. For example, if you only give a user Upload to collection permission on a collection called Upload Area, then when they use the upload form, they will see the following (which in this example means they can only upload to a single collection called Upload Area)
Note that this permission, by itself, does not grant the user access to view any point clouds in the collection - so even though they can upload new point clouds to the collection, if this is the only permission that they have, they will not see any point clouds in the collection. This can be useful if you want to set up an external contractor and allow them to upload point clouds into your account, but not see any of your data.

Edit analytics

Allows the user to edit and save changes to the analytics datasets of a point cloud, such as poles and wires, trees and classification analytics, even if they don't have other edit permissions.

This is a specialised permission - it is primarily used in scenarios where you want to allow teams of users to conduct multi-user QA and edit of analytics datasets and it is undesirable to assign them more widespread edit permissions.

Run analytics

Allows the user to initiate analytics workflows on a project.

Company admins will automatically have this permission. Other users will need to be granted permissions to be able to run analytics.
