Ownership
Listings, teams, and groups have owners, who are responsible for managing them. Owners can be individual users, groups, or teams. All users in a group or team who owns an entity is an owner of the entity. By default, Oblique admins are owners of all entities in Oblique.
By default, owners are automatically assigned as reviewers for requests affecting the entities they own: if you are the owner of a listing, you’ll be asked to review requests for access to that listing, and if you are the owner of a team, you’ll be asked to review requests for joining that team.
Manage what you own
Section titled “Manage what you own”Manage a listing
Section titled “Manage a listing”If you own a listing, you can edit its name, description, visibility, and roles, configure auto-approval policies, change its owners, and delete it.
Owners can’t change a listing’s role mapping, which links the listing role to the underlying resources. Creating listings and editing listing role mappings must be done by an Oblique admin.
Manage a team
Section titled “Manage a team”If you own a team, you can edit its members, owners, and description, and delete the team if it’s no longer needed.
Manage a group
Section titled “Manage a group”If you own an attribute-based group or a reporting group, you can change its owners and delete it. Membership for these groups is based off of user attributes or reporting hierarchy and can’t be edited directly in Oblique.
Review a request
Section titled “Review a request”When a request affects something you own, you’re assigned to review the request. You can see the request in your Requests inbox, and approve it, apply it once it’s approved, or close it.
Request to become an owner
Section titled “Request to become an owner”You can request to become an owner of a listing, team, or group. The request is sent to the existing owners for approval.
From an entity’s page:
- In the Owners section, select Edit. This will open a request.
- To add owners, select Add owners to search for and select the users or groups you wish to add.
- In the Approvals section, review the checks needed to edit this entity’s owners. By default, approval is needed from either an Oblique admin or an existing owner. Click on the list of reviewers to assign different reviewers.
- Select Create request.
Once checks pass and the request is applied, Oblique will add you as an owner of the entity.
