info
You can only set up channel permissions using Status desktop.

Community Owners can set up permissions using three different variables:

Who holds
,
Is allowed to
 and
In
. Check out the table below for reference.

  • Using channel permissions, community Owners can restrict channel access and actions to specific people based on token requirements.
  • Only the community Owner, TokenMaster and admins can set up channel permissions.
  • Use community permissions to make the entire community private. You can combine community-level and channel-level permission in the same community.
  • When you delete a token-gated channel, the channel permissions are lost. If you recreate the channel, you need to set up its permission again.

  1. 1
    From the navigation sidebar, click the community where you want to set up a channel permission.
  2. 2
    Right-click the channel, then click
    Edit channel
    .
  3. 3
    Click
    Add permission
     to start from scratch, or click
    Duplicate
     to start from an existing permission.
  4. 4
    For the
    Who holds
     and
    Is allowed to
     variables, click
    Add
     next to the variable and choose your values. Use the table below for reference.
  5. 5
    Optionally, check
    Hide permission
     to hide this permission from members who don't meet the requirements.
  6. 6
    Click
    Create permission
     and then click
    Save changes
    . The new permission takes effect immediately.

  • If you turn off the
    Who holds
     option, the permission isn't bound to a token. This option only applies to channel-level permissions.
  • For each permission, tokens are linked by
    AND
     operators. This means the new permission takes effect when the holder owns all the tokens. If you want to use the
    OR
     operator instead, create additional permissions.
  • You can include up to five tokens in a single permission.

    From the navigation sidebar, click the community where you want to edit the channel permission.

    Right-click the channel, then click
