# Permissions in Feeds

The Feeds application uses a permissions 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`) : change 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`) : consult 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 the Statistics of articles they added themselves

## Who can see an article's Statistics

Three profiles, and no one else:

* the **organization administrators**, on all articles
* the**article author**, that is, the person who added it to a manual curation feed
* the **administrators of a feed community** in which 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 article author).

## Permission assignment

Permissions in Feeds are managed by organization administrators from the Feeds app settings. The rights related to a feed (edit it, rename it, delete it, add or remove articles, view the Statistics of its articles) are also granted to the administrators of the Communities for which this feed is intended.
