Access control model

Reference documentation

This is reference documentation covering the entire Atlan model. It is not the best place to start when trying to understand how to manage access control in Atlan. For that, we would suggest starting with the access control and personalization snippets.

Base class for Atlan access control assets.

    link Asset "../entities/asset"
