Can't add Required Roles to ACL

Hi,

I'm currently trying to set up access controls to limit which roles can edit, delete or insert records into certain tables in my application. I'm experiencing a weird bug where I can't add required roles even after I have elevated my privileges. I can delete roles, I can add conditions and even scripts but I can't add roles. However, when I switch branches I have the option to add roles but after I have updated that particular Access Control I can no longer add roles anywhere else in my ACLs.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something I can do to fix this issue? Thanks for any feedback offered.

What scope is the Book Catalog table on?  Global?

Hello Dylan,



Maybe as you said that in your application, the roles may be specific to a particular and you are trying to use in global or other applications scope! be sure you are creating required ACL's in respective application scope.

Got stuck with exact issue today and landed on this post. Response from Surya seems appropriate, it could be one of the reasons, but if that's the case, SN gives the option at the top to edit the ACL in respective scope as well.

For me, I had to go back and refresh by elevated priviledge. Reset that, activated again and refreshed the ACL page. The Insert row option on Requires role started to appear.

I'm experiencing this issue on a global table: cmn_location Was there ever a resolution to this?

Adding to what others are saying as well, sounds like you accidentally crossed scopes, as the add roles list is a separate table on the ACL form.

You'll probably need to delete the ACL and recreate it in the right scope and that should solve it for you.  Good luck 🙂
