How to restrict a view in a Model Driven App to a specific security role

[brianpace]

Hi,

I developed a model-driven app, which has a normal user tab and an admin tab. I created a view to restrict the user view to their owning business unit (I had to give them full view rights due to a system job). However, I need to create an admin view with all the records in the table, which can be viewed by users within the the admin role.

The main issue here is that users can still choose the admin view from within the MDA.

Is there any way to restrict this, for non-admin users?

Hello @brianpace, there is no way you can restrict system views at this time. You can restrict Forms but not views. I would recommend that you remove the admin view from your model-driven app, and for those users who need to see the full table records, they can create personal view inside the model-driven app.

Ahmed

That's unfortunate. I do not think the optimal solution is to tell the users to create their own views. If you have an idea on what can be done to provide such "administrator access", I would be very grateful as I am out of ideas 😣

Hi guys, I’m having the same issue ! And I want to know if now there is new possibilities about this topics in 2023, or it’s still impossible to display view depending on security role ? Thanks for the answer ! @brianpace @AhmedSalih

Hi Sinatra, I opted to go around the limitation by creating personal views on my admin account and sharing them with the teams that required it. To my knowledge, there is no other way around this.

I have found a workaround, the model driven  pages, we are restricting based on security role, e.g. admin has access to create, read, write on xxx table...., user has access to just read the data on xxx table, then to page, we are securing by assigning privileges as one who has create access on xxx table those only can see the resp. page (which is a view)

Can you show some screenshots of how you implemented this?

Hi @pallavi_dhepe,

I am also facing the same issue, I have also created an approval view which i want only approvers to be used/viewed. Can you please elaborate the solution little more.
