Profile Restrictions

Profile access restrictions provide the ability to restrict access to specific profiles, based on user role assignment. If there are no restrictions assigned to a profile, then all users (regardless of their role) can view and access that profile (normal security privileges still apply). However, if a profile has a restriction applied, then only users that belong to the defined roles will be able to view and/or access that profile.

Usage

ClosedAdd New

To add a new profile restriction:

  1. Click Add New.
  2. Select the application you want to restrict from the Restrict App dropdown.
  3. Select the profile that you want to restrict from the Restrict Profile dropdown.
  4. Select the role you want to have access from the Allowed Role dropdown.

    Note: You will need to create a new restriction for each role you want to have access to the restricted profile.

    Example: If you have 5 total roles and want to restrict 3 of those roles from accessing a profile, you will need to add a new profile restriction for each of the 2 roles that are allowed access to that profile.
