Defining Visibility of Roles and Privileges at Repository Level

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have come acroos a situation where we need to restrict the visbility of Privileges to a particular group of Users.

We have to do it for all the Privileges corresponing to a particular repository. Changing the visibility for each Privilege manually is problematic.

Can we do it at Repository level using Repository constants?

If we can do it at repository level, please help me with the Repository constant that is used to define the visibility of Roles and Privileges...

Any other suggestion regarding this problem are welcome..

Thanks in Advance,

Hi Joel,

Perhaps you could explore the use of Search and User attributes at the Entry type level to do this. That is, create a custom attribute related to the repository/privilege relationship you are talking about, and assign this attribute to MX_PRIVILEGE. Then users only see the Privileges where the User and Search attributes match.

Hi

I don't know how or even if Repository-Constants can help here.

You could use the related attributes (MX_OWNER, MXAC_ENTRY and MXAC_MEMBERS) in your InitialLoad- or Update-Jobs in the Write[Role/Profile]-Passes.

Maybe this helps.
