Default Tracker Access Permissions

Depending on the class of citizen a user belongs to and the level of permissions granted as a project member, the various features of the Tuleap Tracker may or may not be accessible. Please note that the default access permissions listed below may change for a particular tracker if the tracker administrator modifies the access permission settings. For more information on how to configure tracker access permissions (see Permissions Management). Default permission settings are summarized in the table below:

Tracker Feature	Access Permission
New Artifact Submission	By default any Tuleap visitor, whether logged in or not, has the ability to submit a new artifact to a tracker. The tracker administrator has the ability to limit the scope of this feature to Tuleap registered users (anonymous users are requested to login first) or to the project members if the tracker is made private.
Artifact Browsing	Searching the Artifact database and browsing the results is available to all Tuleap visitors (whether registered or not) unless the tracker has been made private by the project administrator. If so the tracker is only visible to project members.
Artifact Update	By default only project members can update an artifact. Non members have only limited access and can only add a comment or attach a file.
Tracker Administration - Artifact Import	Only Project administrators and project members with Admin. permission can import data into trackers.

Default Tracker Access Permissions

As we went through the description of the Tuleap Tracker features, we referred several times to the flexibility of this system and how easy it is to customize your own tracker. This can be done through the Tracker Administration available in the menu bar of each tracker.
