# Feeds permissions

The Feeds module uses a permission system to control access to the various features.

## Available permissions

* **Add feeds** (`ADD_FEEDS`) : create automatic and manual feeds
* **Delete feeds** (`DELETE_FEEDS`) : remove existing feeds
* **Rename feeds** (`RENAME_FEEDS`) : edit the title of manual feeds
* **Change visibility** (`UPDATE_ORGANIZATION_FEED`) : change the communities that have access to a feed
* **Manage webhooks** (`UPDATE_MANUAL_FEED`) : enable/disable webhooks for manual feeds
* **Add articles** (`ADD_MANUAL_ARTICLE`) : add articles to a manual feed
* **Delete articles** (`DELETE_MANUAL_ARTICLE`) : remove articles from manual feeds
* **View statistics** (`SEE_ARTICLE_VIEWS`) : view the views and readers of the articles in a feed

## Standard user

Collaborators without specific permissions can:

* View the feeds they have access to (via their communities)
* Read articles
* View statistics for the articles they themselves added

## Who can view an article's statistics

Three profiles, and no one else:

* the **organization administrators**, on all articles
* the**article's author**, that is, the person who added it to a manual curation feed
* the **administrators of a community of the feed** where the article is published

Since a feed visible to the entire organization is not restricted to any community, its statistics are accessible only to organization administrators (and to the author of the article).

## Permission assignment

Feeds permissions are managed by organization administrators from the Feeds app settings. Rights related to a feed (editing it, renaming it, deleting it, adding or removing articles, viewing the statistics for its articles) are also granted to the administrators of the communities to which this feed is intended.
