The access element provides a mechanism to set the access controls on Web Content Management items via the feed. A feed entry can contain multiple access sub-elements. Each access element should contain the common name of a single, valid, portal user or group. The users and groups specified in the access element are added to the system defined security fields on the Web Content Management items.
