Crowd 1.1 : 4. Managing Principals, Groups and Roles
This page last changed on Jun 12, 2007 by rosie@atlassian.com.
In Crowd, users are referred to as principal entity objects (or just principals).
Groups and roles are known as permission container objects.
Groups are particularly important in Crowd, as they are often used to control access to applications. Note also that the crowd-administrators group confers Crowd administration rights to its members. Roles are used less frequently, depending on the requirements of individual applications.
