Preferences

Preferences enable you to:

  • configure minimum Permission Groups required to perform a specific action (see Permissions and Relationships page for more information), and,
  • configure other feature thresholds and behaviors

Preference Relationship Priority

Like other records in the DrawBridge, Preferences have tenancy associations: they can be associated to either/both a Company and/or an Accountability policy. This has specific implications:

Priority Relationship Override lower priority configuration
1 Accountability Policy Yes
2 Company Owner (NA)

To clarify: if there is no Accountability Policy associated with a Company, the notes about Accountability Policy override do not apply.

Preference Record Collections and Tenancy

The preferences are grouped as detailed below. Note that this entire Preferences framework is available to both Companies and Accountability Policies. Each record has a field indicating the associated Company or Policy, thus communicating the tenancy association.

And, per the above section on the Priority, preferences associated with an Accountablity Policy override any conflicting preferences associated with a Member Company.

In detail:

  • Category Actions: The Media Room will Allow or Block a video from playing based on the top-scoring category it scores/classifies as. The Category Actions records here allow you to set a list of Categories that will Always (Allow) or Never (Block) play when a video has a top score in the category(ies) you specify.
  • Viewability Status: Set the behavior of the Media Room:
    • Allowed Categories Only: Only videos which have a top score in a Category set to Allow will play. Videos with a top score in a Category set to Ignore or Allow will not play.
    • Allowed Category or Unclassified: In addition to the videos matching Allowed Categories, above, if a classification can not be automatically made, the video will still be allowed to play. This is the most permissive setting.
    • Viewing Classified Media Disabled: The Media Room will not allow any videos to play, regardless of the classification.
