Procedure

  1. Choose Resources > Resources > Namespace > Namespace.
  2. Select the desired account from the Account drop-down list in the upper-left corner.
  3. Click More on the right of the desired namespace and select Manage Object Protocol.

    • If the object protocol is not enabled for the namespace, the Enable Object Protocol page is displayed.

      You can also click the name of the namespace, choose Protocol > Object, and click Enable Object Protocol.

    • If the object protocol is enabled for the namespace, the Manage Permission page is displayed.
