How to share Objects between Roles in a App

Hello!

I am trying to allow different roles to share access to objects (alerts, reports, etc) with one another in the same app. I don't want to give the users admin access though. I have given the two roles read and write access to the app but when I check edit permission the user is only able to give access to the Everyone, User, and its own role (cirt_3).

The default.meta looks like the following:

[]
access = read : [ admin, cirt_2, cirt_3 ], write : [ admin, cirt_2, cirt_3 ]
export = system

Dashboard,reports permissions are role based. If you want to give user based access, you can create different role for group of users. Correct me if I understand your requirement right?

That sounds right. I was wondering if there was a way though for a user to get access to just share objects with another group/role but not actually have access to their content.
