Identifying Matrix sites, assets that a Matrix group has access to


(Douglas (@finnatic at @waikato)) #1

Does anyone have a handy solution for identifying the Matrix sites and assets that a Matrix group has access to?

We use User groups (mainly) to assign access and it would be great if there was a report we could run to check what sites/assets groups or specific users have access to modify.

I’m wondering if it’s possible to use an existing report, or if this is something that might need development.

There is no report for it, but a couple of ideas I can think of:

  • Create an asset listing that lists all assets with %asset_read_permission_assetid% and filter the list with JS based on a user group or ID input.
  • Put that keyword into the default value of a metadata field and do a stored search instead.
  • Simply asset list all assets and restrict the listing by read/write/admin permission, put a user into a group you want to check and then view the asset listing as that user (login as).

Some ideas hopefully that would work?
