Abstract:
Application supervised access to managed content is disclosed. In some embodiments, a free form ACL is defined to delegate to one or more users and/or groups of users an access right or restriction a content manage system is not configured to understand and/or enforce. In some embodiments, if a user requests that an application perform an operation with respect to a content item, the application queries a content management system to determine whether the user has been granted the right to perform the requested operation with respect to the content item. The authoring application then allows or disallows the requested operation based at least in part on the information provided by the content management system.
