Bosch IoT Insights

Managing device access rights

You can manage the access rights of each device for each user role.

To manage the users in your Bosch IoT Insights' project, refer to the Users chapter.

Prerequisites

The device policy must match the standard Bosch IoT Insights' format.

The configuration of access rights is only possible if the Bosch IoT Insights' default policy is used. The format of the default policy can be obtained in the Default Policy section of the Bosch IoT Things chapter.

Proceed as follows

  1. Open the device you want to manage the access rights of.

  2. Click the Access rights button.
    → The Access rights for <device> dialog is displayed.
