What is one step Michael must take in order to limit the intern’s access to work strictly to the APJ Workspace?

Michael manages the Adobe Marketo Engage instance for his company. In order to ensure that each regional team can view and edit only their own programs, Michael has implemented Workspaces. The team recently hired an intern in the Asia Pacific Japan (APJ) region who will be responsible for cloning and preparing programs for launch, working strictly within the APJ Workspace. Custom Roles have not been set up in their Adobe Marketo Engage instance.

What is one step Michael must take in order to limit the intern’s access to work strictly to the APJ Workspace?
A . Create a Role for the intern that grants permissions only for the APJ Partition.
B. Create a Role for the intern that grants permissions only for the APJ Workspace.
C. Create a User for the intern that grants access only to the APJ Workspace.

Answer: B

Explanation:

In Adobe Marketo Engage, workspaces and roles are used to control access to resources. Workspaces are essentially containers for your Marketo assets, like emails, landing pages, campaigns, etc., and they can be set up to restrict access to certain groups or regions, such as APJ in this case.

Roles, on the other hand, are used to control what users can do within their workspace. So, in order to restrict the intern’s access strictly to the APJ Workspace, Michael needs to create a Role that grants permissions only for that specific Workspace.

Note that workspaces and partitions are not the same thing in Marketo. Partitions are about data access, specifically, leads. Workspaces, in contrast, control access to marketing assets. Therefore, creating a role that only allows access to the APJ Partition (Option A) would not be correct because it wouldn’t necessarily limit the intern’s access to just the APJ Workspace.

Option C is also incorrect because users themselves don’t have direct control over access to specific workspaces. Instead, they are assigned roles, and it is those roles that dictate what workspace a user can access and what they can do within it.
