Enabling Security and adding a Trustee from Active Directory is done under System Administration in the CapaInstaller Console.

In this example, we add the Active Directory group "Supporters" to the default "Supporters" profile in CapaInstaller.

Members of this AD group will now inherit the Access permissions for the profile.

However the security module only grants access to Management Portal, there is no graduation of access to Management Portal. Either you have access or not.

Open

Execute the Windows Installer package (CapaInstaller Management Portal.msi) for the Management Portal.
