Introduction

English

The userview Permission Menu allows you to configure category permissions for user-defined groups at run-time.

This feature eliminates the need for app designers to go into the userview builder to manually set the permission for every menu category.

Get Started

The easiest way to see how the Manage Permission menu works is to download the attached demo app, import, publish and run the app in your Joget platform:

Steps:


  1. Manage permission menu basically allows you to configure the userview menu category permissions from the run time screens. In this example (Figure 1), there are four menu categories you can assign the view permission.

Figure 1

2. The Configure button (Figure 2) will present you with the following permission options:

  • Is Admin
  • Is Anonymous
  • Bean Shell Script
  • Department
  • Group
  • Logged In User
  • Organization
  • Is Sub Level Userview
  • User

Figure 2

3. In Userview Builder, the Manage Permission menu property is shown in Figure 3 (More details are provided below). 

Figure 3

4. Each menu category permission property (Figure 4) is tagged as "Permission Type = Controlled By Manage Permission Menu" and given a "Permission Key" name. You then map the respective "Permission Key" names into the "Manage Permission > Permissions" grid (Figure 3).
