Edit security for existing contacts

Edit security settings from the Contacts plug-in to allow desired access to contacts. Administrator access is required to edit contact security. See List of contact permissions.

Note: You can also edit security configurations for contacts by navigating to Database > Edit Security, and then selecting the appropriate Notification Contact Templates for your PI AF server (from the Item column). For example, if your PI AF Server is named MyServer, you must select MyServer-Notification Contact Templates.

1. In PI System Explorer, click Contacts in the navigator pane.

2. Search for the group, escalation team or delivery endpoint whose permissions you want to change.

   You may need to double-click the contact to see its delivery endpoints.

3. Right-click the contact's delivery endpoint and select Security.

   The Security Configuration window for the delivery endpoint appears.

4. Change security settings for the delivery endpoint.

   Permissions can be changed for all identities that have been configured. You can also map new identities and configure their permissions.
