Setting Up Instance and Partner Permissions for Users Outside of Your Own Partner
This guide will help you give Instance and Partner permissions to any user, even if they don't belong to your Partner, via email. This makes it possible to share resources between different companies.
Permissions include:
- Read, Write, or Write and Deploy permissions to selected Instances
- Read or Write permissions to selected Partners
Requirements
To be able to set up permissions for users on the Partner Portal, you have to have access to the Partner Portal. The two other tutorials linked below describe the process of granting permissions to users that belong to the same Partner as you.
- Register on the Partner Portal
