Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for hierarchical access control administration preview of access control rights for hierarchically organized content. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for rendering a hierarchical access control administration preview of access control rights for hierarchically organized content can be provided. The method can include rendering a view of hierarchically organized content in connection with corresponding access rights and proposing explicitly assigned access rights for selected content in the hierarchically organized content. The method also can include re-rendering the view to reflect both the proposed explicitly assigned access rights for the selected content and also implicitly resulting assigned access rights for the children of the selected content.
