Determining ACL for the Document

Previous previous|next Next Page

One last thing that Timothy wants to know from Philip before signing off from the meeting is - How will I get Access Control Lists for my document?

Philip answers Timothy:

When each document is passed back to SES, the crawler is responsible for creating an Access Control List (ACL). This is a list of all the users and/or groups who should have read access to that document. This will be stored by SES in the index, and used to establish which documents may be retrieved by any particular user as part of the search. A critical part of the design process is to figure out how this information is to be obtained.
