Enable one group can import data to their custom tables

[SamuelChang]

Hi all,

I created 2 custom tables for this group, so one catalog item can reference these values. After researching, simple import only applicable to admin only which I don't want to grant them, I was wondering if is there any way grant users in that group ability to import their data, it will be their responsibility to maintain it. They could be import data once a week or once a month, so it's quite important.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @SamuelChang , 

Please try to build this process:

Create one catalog item with following variables:

Data source variable which is reference to data source table

Attachment to attach file to the catalog(this should be mandatory)

Add user criteria to catalog item , it will be available to the particular group.

After submitting catalog , generate request and trigger import set transform. 

So particular users can load the data by using attachment.

if my answer has helped with your question, please mark my answer as accepted solution and give a thumb up.

Thanks & Regards,

Thank you for your feedback, but is there another way without create the new catalog item?

Hi @SamuelChang ,

 Unfortunately It is not allowed as per OOB functionality and only Admins can see the Import option when click on menu option on one of the columns of Incident list view.

To access "Import". You need to go to "UI context menu" and locate "Import" under it.  

You may need to customize the "Import" context Menu by adding the import role under condition.

Mark this as Helpful / Accept the Solution if this helps

Can I copy the existing OOB "Import" function (admin only) that will apply to this group and apply to their custom tables only?
