Chrome tab availability for specific role user in service operations workspace

Hi, I am working on Service Operations Workspace and want this chrome tab ("New Change Request") to be available for just a specific role user and not itil. How can I achieve this with ACL's ?

Hi @axtsxna 

That tab is managed through UX Page Property named chrome_tab.

At the condition > tableDescription > canCreate, this is only visible if the user can create a record on that table.

So you can change the ACL Create in the table to control the visibility of the item accordingly.

{
    "label": {
        "translatable": true,
        "message": "New Change Request"
    },
    "routeInfo": {
        "route": "create-change-request-page",
        "fields": {},
        "multiInstField": ""
    },
    "condition": {
        "tableDescription": {
            "table": "change_request",
            "canCreate": true
        }
    }
}

 

In the other hand, if you wouldn't like to change the ACL, you can modify the property by adding new attribute roles into the condition to apply specific for workspace.

Sample

 

{
    "label": {
        "translatable": true,
        "message": "New Change Request"
    },
    "routeInfo": {
        "route": "create-change-request-page",
        "fields": {},
        "multiInstField": ""
    },
    "condition": {
        "tableDescription": {
            "table": "change_request",
            "canCreate": true
        },
        "roles": ["admin"]
    }
}

Hi @axtsxna 

The M2M Applicability could be the thing you're looking for. Try to check the List Applicabilities [sys_ux_applicability_m2m_list] table and see whether those lists have been associated to an Applicability that contains your custom role. 

 

Let's have a look to the nice post below for details how to config List Applicability.

It's not configurable by groups. The script is private for any customization.

Did you ever get an answer on this specific point?  We have a similar use case

Hi @Tai Vu,

It works perfectly fine if we want to restrict it for one role. How can we restrict these tabs for more than one role? I tried with "roles": ["admin1","admin2"]. But this is not working. Can you please help?

 

Hi @LaxmiPrasanna P 

Yes. Your syntax looks correct, and the following should work

"roles": ["role_1","role_2"]

Hi Tai Vu,

How to restrict using audience(sys_ux_applicability) instead of roles.

Thank you !!
