How to manage Collection permissions across multiple events
The Collections feature in Cadence allows you to control who can create and edit content resources across multiple events in your organization. From the Collections Menu › Settings area, you can configure consistent permission settings that determine whether regular users can add to collections or if this ability is restricted to administrators only, ensuring appropriate content governance while maintaining efficiency across your event portfolio.
When to use
When standardizing collection permissions across multiple events
When implementing content governance policies for your organization
When managing collections across different event types
When delegating collection management to specific team members
Before you start
You must have System Administrator permissions to modify collection permissions across multiple events.
How to do it
Log in to your Cadence Admin account.
Navigate to your account management dashboard.
Select "Account Settings" from the left sidebar navigation.
Click on "Menu" in the submenu.
Select "Event Menu (Default)" to access default menu settings.
This area controls what menu items and collections will automatically appear in all newly created events.
Locate the "Collections" section of the default menu configuration.
Click on "Settings" to access collection permission controls.
Configure the "User Permissions" section for all new events.
Set the "Allow users to add content to collections" permission based on your requirements.
Disabling this setting will restrict content addition to administrators only across all new events, which may limit collaboration.
Review the "Allow users to create and manage Collections" setting if available.
Click "Save" to apply your default permissions to all new events.
Navigate to individual events to override default permissions if needed.
Select "Collections" from the left sidebar navigation in each event.
Click on "Settings" in the Collections menu of the specific event.
Adjust permissions as needed for the individual event.
Click "Save" to apply your changes to the specific event.
Troubleshooting
If permission changes aren't applying consistently across events:
Verify you have System Administrator permissions
Check that the events were created after your default settings were saved
Ensure individual events haven't had their settings manually overridden
