Prizm Content Connect for SharePoint 2013
Configuring Prizm Viewer Permissions
Using PCC for SharePoint > Configuring Prizm Viewer Permissions

Viewer permissions enable users to access the viewer features that they need, such as Print and Download. Viewer permissions are associated with SharePoint Permission Levels. A permission level is a combination of permissions that specify which permissions users have for a site, library, folder or document. Just as permission levels apply to an entire site collection, so do the viewer permissions associated with permission levels.

To view and configure viewer permissions, go to Site settings > Site permissions. From the ribbon, select Prizm Viewer Permissions.

The Prizm Viewer Permissions page displays all Permission Levels for the current site collection, and the viewer permissions associated with each.

To edit the viewer permissions included with a permission level:

  1. Click on the name of a permission level.
  2. Select one or more viewer permissions and click OK.

When an administrator grants permissions to users and groups, the associated viewer permissions are automatically granted as well. Permissions can be granted for the entire site, or overridden for a library, folder, or document.

  • When you access “Prizm Viewer Permissions” from a subsite or library, note that you are navigated to the Prizm Viewer Permissions page for the root site. As indicated above, permission levels, and their associated viewer permissions, apply to an entire site collection.
  • Viewer permissions are not removed when the Accusoft solution is removed. The Accusoft feature can be deactivated and the solution removed, without losing any associated viewer permissions.
  • You must be a Site Collection Administrator to access Prizm Viewer Permissions. If you are a Site Collection Administrator, and are receiving the error "Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you", please go to Site settings > Site collection features and Deactivate and again Activate the Accusoft Prizm Content Connect for SharePoint feature.

Creating Site Collections

Access to Prizm Viewer Permissions is not available by default for new site collections. To enable Prizm Viewer Permissions:
