ROLE-SPECIFIC ACCESS CONTROL TO SECTIONS OF ARTIFACT CONTENT WITHIN A CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT (CM) SYSTEM

摘要

An artifact having at least one role-specific content section can be stored in a repository by a configuration management system. The role-specific content section can be associated with a specific role value. A request to access the stored artifact can be received. The request can include at least an identifier of a requestor, a role value of the requestor, and a version identifier of the artifact. A copy of the artifact specified in the received request can be created. The artifact copy can be modified to omit role-specific content sections inapplicable to the role value of the requestor. The modified artifact copy can be provided to the requestor.
