Hi Team,
I have a requirement that users should not be able to raise incidents via self-service view.
To restrict this, we have disabled the UI Action - 'New' from the Self-Service module.
But some users are searching incident.do and the form is getting opened in self-service view like below
How do I restrict this ?

Hi @ameybhaisar,
what role this user have? I believe that creating incidents shall be "general rights" for all users...
Why would you like them to restrict this?

Hi @ameybhaisar
You’re trying to break the core concept of Self-Service. The idea of Self-Service is that users perform actions themselves. Ideally, you should redirect the user to the portal so they can log an incident from there directly.

Hi @ameybhaisar ,
you can create onSubmit client script like this
function onSubmit() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
if (g_form.getViewName() == 'ess') {
g_form.addErrorMessage('Self Service View ');
g_navigation.open('incident.do?sysparm_view=default');
return false;
}
}
g_navigation.open() open the form in the default view
Please mark my answer as helpful/correct if it resolves your query.
Regards,
Chaitanya
