Permissions

Every action in the Akeneo Migration plugin is governed by its own permission (ACL). This means you can grant roles access to specific actions independently — for example, let one role manage connections while only senior users run or delete migrations.

Permissions are managed from UnoPim's role settings, under Settings → Roles, when editing a role's access.


Akeneo Migration permissions in role settings

Tick the permissions you want the role to have, then use Save changes on the save bar at the bottom of the page.

Available Permissions

GroupPermissionAllows the user to…
ConnectionsViewOpen the Akeneo Migration section and view connections.
CreateCreate a new connection.
EditEdit an existing connection.
DeleteDelete a connection.
Test ConnectionValidate a connection's credentials against Akeneo.
MigrationRunStart a migration for a connection.
Migration RunsView the migration history.
Delete Migration RunDelete one or more migration runs.

TIP

Because each action has its own permission, you can keep your migration process safe across larger teams — for example, granting broad read access to connections while restricting who can actually run or delete migrations.

What a Role Sees

Permissions shape the interface, not just the API:

  • Without Connections → View, the Akeneo Migration entry does not appear in the sidebar at all.
  • Without Connections → Create, the Create Connection button is hidden on the listing.
  • Without Migration → Run, the entity selection and Start Migration controls are hidden from the connection editor.
  • Without Delete Migration Run, the delete action and the mass-delete checkboxes are hidden from the Migration History tab.

Upgrading from an Earlier Version

The plugin's route names changed in 1.1.0, but its ACL permission keys did not. Roles you configured before the upgrade keep exactly the access they had — there is nothing to re-grant. See What's New & Upgrading.
