Advanced Permissions
Overview
With Advanced permissions, you can tailor permissions for users of your Beefree application by hiding or locking UI elements related to:
content tiles
content settings
layout settings
row & content actions (clone, delete, drag, save)
basically anything in the editor!
These advanced permissions grant total customization of the experience you want to present. Since you set them in the configuration parameters passed to your Beefree app after you’ve initialized it, they could be different each time the editor starts, and have different setups for different users.
Use cases
The absolute flexibility of these permissions makes it easy to address specific needs, not achievable with the Roles and Permissions feature that is available in the Beefree SDK Console.
Create skill-based roles
You can create roles that can act only on a content type. For example, you may want a “copywriter” role for people in an organization that only need to touch copy for editing or translation purposes. To do so, you can:
hide any action that doesn’t involve working on the copy of an email or page.
limit style options for the text itself, by
locking/hiding the side tab;
hiding specific settings in the text toolbar.
Customize image & file management workflows
You can limit how users upload and manage images and files inside Beefree SDK; for example, you want some users – e.g., external collaborators – to select pre-approved images and files uploaded by “admin” users. You can do so by:
disabling drag-and-drop of images onto the stage;
limit actions in the file manager (either the built-in one or your custom file picker) by disabling actions like upload, import, and create a folder.
Another interesting case for using advanced permissions is the possibility to set a maximum size for uploads, per user. The maximum size set per user must not exceed the custom limitation size set on the Activate Custom Limitation on File Manager. The default limit is 20 Mb unless otherwise stated. When this permission is configured, the system will check if a file exceeds the set size before uploading it; if so, Beefree SDK will return an error message, which you may customize using Custom languages.
Create custom, secondary roles
When customers of your applications are structured businesses, typically with a headquarter and a locally-deployed organization (e.g., Real Estate, Travel, Retail), their administrators can create custom, secondary roles to match any internal policy they might have. In this scenario, admins typically want to reduce disruptions of centrally-deployed templates for external communication, while allowing a specific degree of freedom.
Initialize different versions of the editor
By combining multiple permissions, you can load Beefree SDK with radically different experiences, based on the user that starts it. For example:
a “stripped-down” version of the content builder for lower-level subscribers;
a “simplified” version of the builder for new users of an account.
How it works
To set up the advanced permissions, you will need to add the advancedPermissions object to beeConfig.
First-level fields
The following table provides the name, data type, description, and an example value for the first-level fields for advancedPermissions.
uid
string
Unique identifier for the CMS user (mandatory).
'CmsUserName'
container
string
HTML container element ID for embedding Beefree SDK (mandatory).
'bee-plugin-container'
advanced permissions
object
Contains settings for content elements, rows, settings, and tabs configurations.
See configuration object for details.
components
object
Specifies available components like file picker and link types.
{ filePicker: {...}, linkTypes: {...} }
rowAddOn
object
Settings for custom row add-ons, such as custom behaviors.
{ customRowAddonHandle: {...} }
workspace
object
Defines workspace settings, such as stage toggle and history buttons visibility.
{ stageToggle: {...}, historyButtons: true }
Available permissions and behaviors
You can add all the permissions, some of them, or just one. It is up to your application to create them for all users or a segment, as there are no related server-side settings. You may have a different setup each time the editor starts.
All the permissions use a similar pattern, but the object must match the content schema for the type of content (described in the following section).
Defaults
Each content type below contains a parameter for “behaviors” and “properties”. The behaviors control what someone can, or can’t, do. The properties parameter is an array of sidebar property widgets (e.g., the width slider), and each widget has its default permissions.
Sidebar property widget permissions
All sidebar property widgets (e.g. width slider, alignment, color, etc.) accept the following basic permissions:
locked
boolean
true or false
show
boolean
true or false
Let’s look at an example of these permissions applied to an image module. The following example will hide the image width property widget and lock the text alignment widget. We’ll cover more of the available settings below.
beeConfig: {

Components
The components object lets you control the behavior and permissions for tools like file pickers and link types within the editor. You can define what actions users can take, such as uploading or deleting files, and specify which link types (e.g., web addresses, emails) are available. This section provides more information on the component object within advanced permissions.
filePicker
The following code provides an example of the filePicker object.
beeConfig: {
uid: 'CmsUserName', // [mandatory]
container: 'bee-plugin-container', // [mandatory]
advancedPermissions: {
components: {
filePicker: {
canApplyEffects: true,
canChangeImage: true,
canChangeVideo: true,
canCreateFolder: true,
canDeleteFile: true,
canDeleteFolder: true,
canImportFile: true,
canSearchFreePhotos: true,
canSearchFreeVideos: true,
canUpload: true,
maxUploadFileSize: 20971520 // 20 MB
}
}
}
}
linktypes
The following code provides an example of the linkTypes object.
beeConfig: {
uid: 'CmsUserName', // [mandatory]
container: 'bee-plugin-container', // [mandatory]
advancedPermissions: {
components: {
linkTypes: {
webAddress: {
show: true
},
emailAddress: {
show: true
},
telephone: {
show: true
},
text: {
show: true
},
anchor: {
show: true
}
}
}
}
}
Rows
The rows object in Beefree SDK allows you to manage the behavior and appearance of rows in the editor. You can control what users can do with rows, such as adding, deleting, or moving them. Additionally, you can set permissions for properties like background color, stacking behavior on mobile, and visibility settings. Configuring the rows object ensures users can work with rows in a controlled way, customizing their content without altering crucial layout elements.
Hosted Saved Rows
Hosted Saved Rows includes advanced permissions to control how rows and categories are accessed and managed. These permissions allow you to define user capabilities, such as editing or deleting rows.
Available Permissions
canDeleteHostedRow: Allows or prevents deleting hosted rows.canEditHostedRow: Enables or disables editing of hosted rows.canManageHostedRowCategory: Controls whether end users can manage row categories.canAddHostedRowCategory: Determines if end users can add new categories.
Permission Behavior
If both
canDeleteHostedRowandcanEditHostedRoware set tofalse, the row menu will be hidden.If both
canManageHostedRowCategoryandcanAddHostedRowCategoryare set tofalse, the category management menu will be hidden.
Example Configuration
The following configuration displays an example of the rows object inside of advancedPermissions:
{
...
advancedPermissions:{
...
rows:{
behaviors: {
canDeleteHostedRow: false,
canEditHostedRow: false,
canManageHostedRowCategory: false,
canAddHostedRowCategory: false,
},
...
},
...
}
...
}Rows Addon
The following code demonstrates how to specify behavior settings for individual row addons. A custom row addon can have its behaviors set independently from the global row settings.
beeConfig: {
uid: 'CmsUserName', // [mandatory]
container: 'bee-plugin-container', // [mandatory]
advancedPermissions: {

hiddenOnAmp: false,
hiddenOnHtml: false,
hiddenOnMobile: false,
hiddenOnDesktop: false,
canResize: true,
canResetMobile: true
}
}
}
}
}
Columns
The columns object in the Beefree SDK lets you control the behavior and permissions for columns within the editor. You can define what users can do with columns, such as adding, selecting, moving, or deleting them. You can also set properties like column spacing and border radius. Configuring the columns object ensures that users can manage column layouts effectively, while maintaining control over the design and structure of the content.
beeConfig: {
uid: 'CmsUserName', // [mandatory]
container: 'bee-plugin-container', // [mandatory]
advancedPermissions: {
columns: {
behaviors: {
canSelect: true,
canAdd: true,
canViewSidebar: true,
canDelete: true,
hiddenOnAmp: false,
hiddenOnHtml: false,
hiddenOnMobile: false,
hiddenOnDesktop: false,
canResize: true,
canResetMobile: true
},
padding: {
locked: false,

},
backgroundColor: {
locked: false,
show: true
},
backgroundImage: {
locked: false,
show: true
},
verticalAlign: {
locked: false,
show: true
},
borderRadius: {
locked: false,
show: true
},
contentAlign: {
locked: false,
show: true
}
}
}
}
Tabs
The tabs object in the Beefree SDK allows you to manage the visibility and permissions of different tabs within the editor, such as the Rows, Content, and Settings tabs. You can control which tabs users can access and whether they can interact with them. By configuring the tabs object, you streamline the editor’s interface, ensuring users have access to only the relevant tabs they need for editing while maintaining control over what they can modify.
beeConfig: {
uid: 'CmsUserName', // [mandatory]
container: 'bee-plugin-container', // [mandatory]
advancedPermissions: {
tabs: {
rows: {
locked: false,
show: true
},
settings: {
locked: false,
show: true
},
content: {
locked: false,
show: true
}
}
}
}
Settings
The settings object in the Beefree SDK allows you to control various design-related settings within the editor, such as content area width, background colors, and default font styles. You can define which settings users can view or modify, such as enabling or locking background images or link colors. By configuring the settings object, you ensure that users can customize specific design elements while maintaining overall control over the layout and style of the content.
beeConfig: {
uid: 'CmsUserName', // [mandatory]
container: 'bee-plugin-container', // [mandatory]
advancedPermissions: {
settings: {
contentAreaWidth: {
locked: false,
show: true
},

},
favicon: {
locked: false,
show: true
}
}
}
}
Content
The content object in the Beefree SDK controls the behavior and permissions for different types of content blocks, such as text, images, buttons, and more. You can specify what users can do with each content type, such as adding, editing, or selecting them, and set properties like alignment, padding, and visibility. By configuring the content object, you allow users to interact with content blocks while maintaining control over how each element can be modified within the design.

Icon
You should use the Icon object to set advanced permissions when you need granular control over the display and behavior of icon elements. This allows you to lock certain properties, such as the visibility and font weight, ensuring consistency across different devices and user interactions. Additionally, setting these permissions helps in maintaining a cohesive design by managing how icons respond to mobile and AMP environments.

Icon Configuration Elements
In the given icon code, the structure is defined using objects, properties, and parameters to represent a detailed configuration. The main object, icons, encompasses two primary properties: behaviors and properties, each of which is an object itself. The behaviors object contains a property canResetMobile with a boolean parameter set to false, indicating a specific behavior setting. The properties object holds various properties such as icons, fontWeight, align, and more, each representing different characteristics and settings for the icons. Each of these properties has parameters assigned to them; for instance, the icons property has show and locked parameters set to true, determining the visibility and lock status of the icons. This nested structure using objects and properties with defined parameters represent the configuration settings in the code.

Addon
In this section, we will explore how to assign advanced permissions and behaviors for various AddOn types, specifically focusing on how to customize permissions for Custom AddOns and Row AddOns. These permissions can override default settings to provide granular control. For instance, an image addon can have specific permissions different from the default image block permissions.
To successfully use this feature, follow these steps:
Identify the AddOn ID: Obtain the unique ID of the addon you wish to assign permissions to.
Define Custom Permissions: Based on the type of addon, assign relevant permissions in your configuration file.
Override Default Permissions: Specify advanced permissions for the addon, ensuring they override the default ones if needed.
Set Specific Behaviors: For row addons, include permissions for individual modules like image blocks inside the row addon.
Apply Global Restrictions: Optionally, set global restrictions for all mixed and row content addons for consistent behavior.
By following these steps, you can effectively manage and customize addon permissions.
The following code provides an example of the different content modules and the addons-id.
content: {
image: { /**/ }, // The image block allows you to add and configure images in your content.
button: { /**/ }, // The button block provides options for adding and styling call-to-action buttons.
social: { /**/ }, // The social block enables you to include social media icons for sharing or linking.
addon: {
// The addon block supports custom addons content, such as custom images or mixed content addons.
customImageHandle: { /**/ }, // A custom image addon to manage and configure image properties.
customRowAddonHandle: { /**/ } // A custom row addon for managing entire row behaviors and properties.
}
}The following code shows an example AddOn with the canViewSidebar behavior set to true.
content: {
addon: {
// This is where you define custom addons, such as a custom images addon.
customImageHandle: {
behaviors: {
canViewSidebar: true, // Specifies that the sidebar is visible for this custom image addon.
},
},
}
}
Module inside row addon
The following code defines specific permissions and behaviors for different modules within a Row AddOn.
content: {
addon: {
// This block allows the addition of custom addons and controls their behaviors.
customImageHandle: {
behaviors: {
canViewSidebar: true, // Enables the sidebar for this specific addon.
},
},
customRowAddonHandle: {
// Custom row-specific behaviors and permissions for an addon inside a row.
behaviors: {
canAdd: true, // Allows adding a new row.
canClone: false, // Disables cloning of this row.
canDelete: false // Disables deleting of this row.
},
image: {
// Controls behaviors and properties for image modules within this row addon.
behaviors: {
canSelect: true // Allows image selection inside the row addon.
},
properties: {
textAlign: {
show: false // Hides the text alignment control for images in this row addon.
}
}
}
},
mixed: {
// Handles behaviors for mixed content addons (those containing multiple types of content).
behaviors: {
canAdd: false // Disables the ability to add mixed content.
}
},
rowAddon: {
// Controls behaviors for all row content addons.
behaviors: {
canAdd: false // Disables adding new row content addons.
}
}
}
}Add Condition and Edit Condition Buttons
You can choose to display or hide the "Add Condition" and "Edit Condition" buttons when using the Content Dialog with Display Conditions.
The following code shows an example config for how you can display or hide these buttons using advanced permissions.
{
rows: {
// Controls the display conditions for rows in your design.
displayConditions: {
locked: false, // Specifies whether the display conditions can be edited. 'false' means it can be modified.
show: true // Determines if the display conditions are visible to the user.
}
}
}
Brand Tones Settings
The following code snippet provides an example configuration for integrating the AI Writing Assistant AddOn with advanced permission settings for managing access and permissions to Brand Tones:
const beeConfig = {
uid: 'unique_user_id', // Unique identifier for the user
addOns: [
{
id: "ai-integration", // Identifier for the AI integration add-on
settings: {
isBrandTonesEnabled: true, // Mandatory to enable the Brand Tones feature
canAddBrandTones: true, // Optional: Allow the user to add new Brand Tones
canDeleteBrandTones: false, // Optional: Prevent the user from deleting existing Brand Tones
canEditBrandTones: true, // Optional: Allow the user to edit existing Brand Tones
canSelectBrandTones: true // Optional: Allow the user to select Brand Tones for use
}
}
],
// Other configurations
};Role templates
We’ve put together a few JSON templates of custom roles created with Advanced permissions, so you can get started experimenting with this powerful feature.
You can find them in our GitHub account.
