Privileges are a set of permissions that grant access to secure resources and functionality in ArcGIS. They can be assigned to ArcGIS accounts, developer credentials, and applications. User accounts are granted privileges with roles, while custom applications are granted privileges with developer credentials.
Privileges granted to developer credentials are categorized into different scopes depending on the level of access they require to your ArcGIS account. Privileges with a standard scope can be used in public applications, while privileges with a personal scope are restricted to personal applications and automation scripts.
