Hi.

I want to give users access to override default repository sets on individual content hosts.
I though giving users view_host and edit_host permission will give them this but they still can’t see repository_sets tab under content when they go to the host to edit. is this not possible for the normal users and only admins can do this?

Also, I have simple content access enabled on my org and hosts are being registered with an activation key which has a default content view assigned to it.

Thanks.

Users will also need ‘view_activation_keys’ and ‘view_products’ permissions.

As far as I have experienced, also view_organizations is needed or the Repository Sets page will show nothing beside a grey stripe.

Hi.

@jeremylenz and @lumarel Thank you so much! ‘view_activation_keys’ was missing. This is now resolved.

For others if they run into this problem, I have these permissions for users:
access_dashboard
view_activation_keys
view_hosts, edit_hosts
view_locations
view_organizations
view_products

Thanks
