Policies
The Policies template is used to denote the availability and rules governing an amenity for a user group at a location. For example, "Can guests use the wifi at the student union?", where guests are the user_group, wifi is the amenity_name, and the student union is the location. Each combination of amenity_name, user_group, and location should be unique. The user_group and location accept multiple values, which you can use for cases where a policy applies to multiple user_groups and locations.
The following table contains key information about the Policies template.
