Limiting Designer Access to Specific User Groups

WestOderman

Prerequisites

The following example demonstrates how to limit specific Groups from the other's respective Designers. For more information on establishing Groups, see Create a Group. 

The following example requires that three Groups have been established:

• One for accessing the Flow Designer 
• One for accessing the Form Designer
• One for Admins

Note that if a restricted environment is needed for Rule Designers, it is advised to make a custom Dashboard.

Example

1 From the DecisionsStudio, navigate to Designers > Toolbox Customization > Element Rules, then click ADD TOOLBOX RULE; provide a Name for the Rule then click ADD TOOLBOX RULE. 

2 Select the newly added Rule. From the Rule Designer, define the first If condition as type is Flow. Then click DONE and CLOSE. 

3 Still, under the If statement, click Add, then click Add Condition. 

4 Define the new statement as Flow Data.InitiatingUserGroups List Contains [NAME OF RESTRICTED GROUP]. Then click DONE and CLOSE.

5 Navigate to the Properties tab, under SETTINGS, and make sure that the Enabled box is checked. 

6  Save, then close the Rule. 

7 Back in the Element Rules Folder, select ADD TOOLBOX RULE and create another Rule, this time for the other Designer Type. 

8 Open the newly added Rule. 

9 Following the same process as steps 2-5, define the Rule as If type is Form and Flow Data.InitiatingUserGroups List Contains [OTHER RESTRICTED GROUP NAME]. 

10 Ensure that the Enabled box is checked, then Save and close the Rule.
