Configuring page permissions
Permissions for access to Kentico pages can be configured at three levels of a three-level permissions hierarchy. Click the links in the Page permission level column to learn more about each of them.

Permissions from these three levels are merged together when checking if a user is permitted to perform an action with a page. For example, to read a CMS.News page, a user must have the Read permission on at least one of the three levels: either on the pages-level, or for the CMS.News page type, or for all content.
