[SOLVED] Putting security on specific MRE blocks
Hi,

I'm trying to figure out the following:
I have an application running with several blocks/tabs. As far as I understand it now. The user security is set on application level. Now I would like to change the user security for a specific block/tab (Eg. more/different users on one tab).

Is this possible?

Thanks!

Regards Bart

Bart,

Dashboard security is set via MR security. This is set by adding users to a group and a group to a domain.

I have never tried to set up 2 tabs from different domains in the view builder. That would be the only way to get it to work.

Try creating a Database with user security level and have a routine that reads the DB in every program involved. Then you can load your parameters and program access according to the access level. The easiest way is if a user clicks on a link that they don't have access to is to display a message that they don't have access. It is harder, but possible to not display the link.
