8.1 User Roles and Scopes for MindConnect Nano
There are multiple roles that are available for MindConnect device controlling. A device can be
configured and can send the command to the device by an “Admin” user. If you want to ensure
that a user cannot configure but can send a command, then you can use “DeviceCommander”
role. If you want to ensure that a user can configure but cannot send a command, then you can
use “DeviceConfigurator” role.
The following table shows the list of MindConnect device roles and scopes:
User role Functionality or Scope
StandardUser (uipluginassetmanagermcnano:user)
This role grants the permission to visualize the
MindConnect device plugin, but cannot change
the device configuration and cannot send
commands to the device.
DeviceConfigurator
(uipluginassetmanagermcnano:deviceconfigurator)
This role grants the permission to visualize the
MindConnect device plugin and update the device
configuration, but cannot send commands to the
device.
DeviceCommander

This role grants the permission to visualize the
MindConnect device plugin and can send the
commands to the device, but cannot update the
device configuration.
Admin (uipluginassetmanagermcnano:admin)
This role grants the permission to configure and
command the MindConnect device.
By default, these roles are not enabled on the environment. To enable these roles you need to
navigate to the "Settings" app.
In "Settings" app, click on "Roles" tab and click to enable the new roles. For more information
about roles, see "Roles" chapter in "Settings" documentation.
In case of role change, you need to log out and log in. It might take up to 15
minutes for the current configuration to be effective depending on the system.
