# Access

Access controls which user groups can find or manage a quiz as a Library item.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Location:** Library → Quiz → Access
{% endhint %}

| Permission                   | Allows the selected groups to…                  |
| ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| **View**                     | Find and view the quiz.                         |
| **Edit**                     | Change quiz content and configuration.          |
| **Delete**                   | Remove the quiz.                                |
| **Set specific permissions** | Assign these permission groups to other groups. |

Admins and managers receive broad permissions by default. Other access is granted to user groups using the selectors on the page.

Permissions are additive. If a staff member belongs to more than one selected group, they receive the combined capabilities of those groups. Test with an educator account that has the same group memberships as the intended user.

**Set specific permissions** is a delegation capability: it lets the selected group decide which other groups receive these item-level permissions. Grant it more sparingly than ordinary edit access.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Library access is separate from delivering a quiz to candidates through an assignment or exam. Grant only the management permissions a group needs.
{% endhint %}

If an educator cannot find a quiz, check both their global permissions and the quiz's item-level access. If a student cannot take it, check the Collection, Assignment, Course or Exam that delivers it instead.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://synap.ac/docs/platform/quizzes/access.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
