What are Access Permissions? | BG_AP_001

This tutorial video on Infigo covers the concept of access permissions, a crucial feature for managing product visibility in B2B storefronts. The video explains how access permissions allow administrators to control which customers or groups of customers can view specific products. This is particularly useful in scenarios where a storefront serves multiple companies or when a large client has employees across various locations and departments. The tutorial demonstrates various methods to configure these permissions, whether on a one-to-one basis or more broadly, ensuring that only the appropriate users can access the relevant products.

Okay.

00:00:07:15 - 00:00:10:15
So what are access permissions.

00:00:11:02 - 00:00:14:22
So they control access to products

00:00:15:02 - 00:00:18:00
based on
the customer is accessing the storefront.

00:00:18:00 - 00:00:20:27
So what we're essentially looking at here
is if you're on

00:00:20:27 - 00:00:23:27
usually a B2B storefront,
if somebody logs in,

00:00:24:16 - 00:00:28:25
we want to know which products
they're going to have the ability to view.

00:00:28:25 - 00:00:30:16
And we've got the ability to control that,

00:00:30:16 - 00:00:32:00
which is what
we're going to be covering today.

00:00:32:00 - 00:00:34:23
And we can do it
in a number of different ways.

00:00:34:23 - 00:00:37:24
There are numerous methods
of defining both customer

00:00:38:22 - 00:00:42:00
and product availability to each other.

00:00:42:10 - 00:00:46:22
So you can specify kind of like a 1 to
1 connection if that's suitable for you.

00:00:46:23 - 00:00:49:23
So this customer
can't access this product,

00:00:50:03 - 00:00:53:19
or you can do it in much more general
general terms as, as well.

00:00:53:27 - 00:00:58:19
So it might be that you specify an entire
a user can access an entire category,

00:00:59:03 - 00:01:02:09
or an entire department of users
can access an entire category.

00:01:02:18 - 00:01:06:02
For example, we've got a number
of different ways in which we can do this.

00:01:08:03 - 00:01:09:16
The usual

00:01:09:16 - 00:01:13:01
use cases for access
permissions are in B2B,

00:01:13:01 - 00:01:16:02
as I've mentioned a couple of specifics
for that.

00:01:16:08 - 00:01:20:03
So let's say you have a B2B storefront
which has multiple different

00:01:20:03 - 00:01:21:22
companies on it.

00:01:21:22 - 00:01:26:12
So a shared storefront, essentially,
you want to make sure that customers

00:01:26:12 - 00:01:29:12
are only able to access products
that are associated with them.

00:01:30:27 - 00:01:34:17
Additionally, you might have a storefront
for one of your bigger clients,

00:01:34:17 - 00:01:37:17
which is a bespoke storefront
just for them.

00:01:37:22 - 00:01:41:04
But if they were big clients,
they might have, employees

00:01:41:04 - 00:01:44:04
that are in different locations
that are in different departments.

00:01:44:17 - 00:01:48:04
And again, you might only want them
to be able to access certain products.

00:01:48:14 - 00:01:51:14
So again, you would use access permissions
to control this.
