 The response of the above mentioned webservice is the account configuration. Like it can be seen in the picture, does this configuration contain the "account restriction" flag, the shared presets as well as a variable amount of accounts. The accounts themself does contain a flag "setting restriction level", a default configuration and shared presets.

 Shared PreSet is a new term for presets provided through an account configuration. They can be defined "globally" for every account or per account. This presets should not be mistaken by the "setting configuration" for every account, which is the basic preset for every account and the standard preset that is loaded when users with setting restriction level [[Serverside_Account_Configuration#Restricted | Restricted]] attempt to login.

 Open users do not have any restriction regarding what settings they can access, change or save. The only difference to the case that no account configuration was received and described at [[Login_Dialog]], is that open users have access to the shared PreSets that are stored in the account configuration.

 A settings restricted user has only very limited options to change his settings. No matter what settings are loaded or set before the login, they are always set to his standard settings when logging in. The only exception are the accounts shared PreSets as well as the "global" shared PreSets, defined in the account configuration. The restricted user has access to them, load them and after logging out and logging in again, they are restored as it would be the case for an open user.
 Further, a restricted user is neither able to access local PreSets nor to save them.
