# Permissions & approvals

[Manage connectors](https://xos.prozessx.com/workspace/agents)

## What permissions control

Permissions define how far an agent may access a connector on behalf of a user. After connecting, the default is Read + write (Lesen + Schreiben) with all related actions. An admin can raise or restrict the level per user and connector.

- No access (Kein Zugriff) : The connector is blocked for this user. Their own view shows Blocked (Gesperrt) .
- Read only (Nur lesen) : The agent may only read.
- Read + write (Lesen + Schreiben) : The agent may read and make changes. This is the default level.
- Full access (Vollzugriff) : unrestricted access to the connector.

## View your own permission

- Open the [Connectors page](https://xos.prozessx.com/workspace/agents) and click the connector's tile.
- The settings panel opens on the right. Under Connection status (Verbindungsstatus) you see whether you're connected.
- Under My permission (Meine Berechtigung) you see your level, and below it, as chips, the actions unlocked for you.

The Active for me (Für mich aktiv) switch under Activation (Aktivierung) is your own pause button and independent of the level. The level is set by an admin.

## As an admin: control team access

As an admin, you use the Team access (Team-Zugriff) section to set the level each member has for this specific connector.

- Open the [Connectors page](https://xos.prozessx.com/workspace/agents) and click the connector's tile.
- Expand the Team access (Team-Zugriff) section at the bottom of the panel. You see all members. Users without a connection are marked not connected (nicht verbunden) .
- Click the level you want for a person: No access (Kein Zugriff) , Read only (Nur lesen) , Read + write (Lesen + Schreiben) or Full access (Vollzugriff) . Your choice is saved immediately.

Only admins see the Team access (Team-Zugriff) section. Everyone else only sees their own permission and can't change it.

## What happens when access is blocked

With No access (Kein Zugriff) , the connector's agent isn't even set up for this user. At the other levels, only the unlocked actions are available. Blocked individual actions are hidden from the agent.

Changes apply from the next request in the [chat](https://xos.prozessx.com/workspace/chat). If an agent suddenly can't access a service anymore, first check the level under Team access (Team-Zugriff) and whether Active for me (Für mich aktiv) is switched on for that user.
