Scopes let you specify the exact API permissions your app can have access to in a Seismic tenant.

Scopes are defined in the following format:
seismic.object.permission

  • All scopes will start with "seismic"
  • The object is the area of the platform that you are going to be interacting with, such as Library, Users, or Reporting
  • The permission level is either view for read-only access, or manage for read/write access
    • There are a few exceptions noted below that do not contain a view or manage permission level, such as Reporting, Delivery, and Search

📘
