As we saw in Section 1.1.4 only Archive Managers, Domain Curators and Domain Managers can add, edit or revoke rules. For this reason, make sure you have an appropriate role for the considered domain when carrying out the steps indicated in this section. Also make sure you have agreed on the node licenses (see Section 3.4), as not doing so might prevent you from setting up new rules.
To add a rule carry out the following steps:
Select a domain, i.e. a node, from the corpus tree in ASV.
Click on . The page that now appears is the Node Authorization Overview (see also Figure 1.4).
Click on Add new Rules (at the end of the section Rules of Node + [name of the node]). The page that now appears is the Node Authorization Management.
Select a user or a group from the dropdown menu in the section Rule Settings. This section has two additional boxes: Specify Rules and Assign Roles.

Note If you had already selected a user or group in the Node Authorization Overview, it is not necessary to select a user or group in the Node Authorization Management.
Specify Rules
The following steps are for specifying rules:
Specify a rule for one or more of the following resource types by selecting the appropriate checkboxes under the Rule column:
Info files (all kind of files), e.g. PDF
Annotations/Text files, e.g. EAF
Images, e.g. JPEG
Audio files, e.g. WAV
Video files, e.g. MPEG
Allow or deny the reading of the resource by selecting the appropriate option from the dropdown menu in the Type column.
If you have the Archive Manager role, a Priority dropdown menu will be shown as well next to each of these resource types. See Chapter 4 for an explanation on this.
Optionally you can specify an expiration date - on which the rule will be deactivated (Expires on (optional) column). Click on the
icon to get a small calendar for the selection of a day.If you are an Archive Manager or Editor, you will also see a 'Forbidden Access' rule. This rule can only be applied to the group 'Everybody'. It has the purpose of blocking the access to a certain branch and it has higher priority than the normal "deny" rules. Only the Archive Managers and Domain Managers/Editors/Curators will have access to a branch where the access is forbidden. More info about the group 'Everybody' can be found in Section 3.3.3).
Assign Roles
If you are an Archive Manager or a Domain Curator the Assign Roles boxes will be activated. This allows you to appoint a user/group as Domain Curator/Manager/Editor. Only the possibilities that come with your privileges are available, the other ones are grayed out.
Check the roles you wish to assign to the selected user/group.
Optionally, roles can be time-limited using an expiration date as well.
As for the Domain Editor role, a maximum storage space for resources must be assigned.
Click on Save or discard the settings using the Cancel button on the bottom of the screen.
When saved, the new rules/roles will be displayed next to the users they are assigned to.
