User and Role

A user is identified by an account and a set of credentials, provided by administrators.

Every action in AURA is performed by a user account. Depending on their role, a user has different permissions.

User roles

Some user account typically has one of these roles assigned:

• Host
  Typically a host is a person belonging to the editorial staff. Depending on the radio station a host has different permissions. Such permissions can allow full show administration or only certain rights on show or episode level. Hosts can also be only guests on certain episodes of shows they do not belong to (so called contributors). Such hosts have no login credentials and are mainly presented on the website description.
  
  

• Program Manager
  A program coordinator is the manager of a radio stations program. It is in charge of organising the overall program plan, involving schedules, consistency in show and episode information and other content quality assurence duties.
  
  

• Radio Station Administrator
  This is a superuser, typically part of the IT team. Radio Station Administrators are in charge of keeping the system up and running, performing updates and doing certain low level operations.
  
  

In addition to these roles, users can also have a set of individual permissions.
