Separate Create items permission from Create templates permission
complete
Justin Kramp
Currently, if I want a copywriter to be able to create items, I also have to grant them Create template permission.
The Roles & Permissions UI treats these as separate permissions but in practice you must always enable create templates with create items, otherwise users get an error when they attempt to create items.
Users who create and edit content are not always the same users who create and manage data models/templates/structures. These permissions should function independently.

This bug has now been fixed - the permissions will now behave as per my previous comment.
If you run into any issues please reach out to our support team.

Just a quick update - this has now been raised as a bug and will go through our usual bugs process. I will keep this request open in order to keep you informed of its progress.
Once fixed, the functionality will be as follows:
The "Create template" permission will be required to allow users to create templates and edit structure.
The "Create item" permission will be required to create items and apply templates. This permission
alone
will not permit users access to the structure editor, so when a new item is created, the only option will be to apply an existing template.Aaliyah Jenkins
This is essential! Please make these independent functions. "Apply template" should be allowed with "create item." And "create template/components" should be a totally different permission.

This is important. We don't want our users to create their own templates.
