To streamline the management of usage privileges, Canto PIM makes use of the user roles that you have already established in your tenant. However, as many of its features require their own set of permissions, which are managed independently and directly through Canto PIM.

Please note: The actions described in this article require Administrator privileges, and are unavailable on Consumer and Contributor profiles. |
Enable access to Canto PIM
While your tenant's roles – including custom roles – are all available in Canto PIM, they do not automatically have access permissions.
To grant a user role access to Canto PIM, follow the steps described in the article "How to: Manage user roles - Customize a user role". Find the new privilege "Access PIM" in the category "Advanced Privileges", and check the box next to it. Once you click "Save" in the top right corner, all users with the respective role will have access to Canto PIM.
Customize Canto PIM privileges
Click on "Admin" in the top right corner, then select "Privileges".
Use the tabs at the top of the page to select a user role, then click "Edit".
To grant a privilege, check the box next to it. Remove the check to revoke the privilege again. Click "Save" to apply your changes to the role.
