In this video, we introduce how Arbometa handles user roles and application behavior through user groups and actions.

Arbometa allows you to define different user groups, representing roles within your application. Instead of configuring permissions for each user individually, access is managed at the group level, making the system easier to control and extend.

To work with actions, we use the more detailed node view. Unlike the simplified interface, this view exposes additional elements of the node, including a list of available actions. These actions represent operations that can be performed in relation to the node’s data.

Each action can be configured and then assigned to specific user groups. This means that behavior in the system is not hardcoded, but defined through a combination of structure (nodes), logic (actions), and access control (user groups).

As a result, Arbometa provides a flexible way to define who can do what, where, and under which conditions — all within the same data structure.
