Grant media type permissions
Last updated
The Grant media type permissions ECA workflow gives the Content editor role the permissions it needs to work with a media type as soon as that media type is created.
This model is provided by the Drupal CMS Media recipe (drupal_cms_media). The screenshot below shows the model open in the Workflow Modeler.

Event, Media type created: Fires when a new media type is created.
Action, Grant permissions: Temporarily switches to the administrator account and grants the Content editor role the permissions for the new media type: create, edit any, delete any, and use the bulk upload form.
Without this workflow, a site builder would have to open the permissions page and tick each new permission by hand every time a media type is added. The model keeps content editors able to manage every media type as it is created.
Go to Administration \ Configuration \ Workflow \ ECA, find Grant media type permissions, and open it in the Workflow Modeler.
