Access to the Media Control Center (MCC) is limited to the set of users that have been created for your organization. The MCC users for your organization are assigned a set of privileges by a MCC administrator. These privileges determine the set of pages that may be accessed by a user when he/she logs into the MCC and the set of actions that may be performed when leveraging our REST API.
Privileges only affect actions performed within the MCC or via our REST API.

Please contact your CDN account manager to request the activation of additional services.
Privileges are organized according to how a user may navigate to the corresponding page. View the children associated with a privilege by clicking on it. A child privilege cannot be granted without its parent privilege. Therefore, granting a child privilege will automatically grant all of its parent privileges. This principle is illustrated in the above illustration. Granting the Compression privilege automatically granted both the ADN and the Cache Settings privileges.
A 
icon indicates that a privilege contains one or more child privileges.

- A user's ability to modify his/her own basic profile settings is not controlled by privileges.
Definitions
A description and the scope of each privilege are provided below.
Certain privileges only determine whether a menu item will be enabled. If a user navigates to that menu item, then the first child page, as determined by the order in which the permissions are listed below, for which that user has been granted access will be loaded. If all of the children of that parent privilege have been denied to that user, then the user will receive a message indicating insufficient access.
