Hi all,

I searched but could not see much on GlideSecurityManager and ACLs mentioned in a single context anywhere. If anyone could help me with some documentation, would be highly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Anish

Hi Anish,

 

As per my knowledge both are used & works independantly. As GlideSecurityManager would allow us to play with user's session & security something similar to what ACL does.

You can check below link & comments from Paul. In addition, check for link

Thanks Jaspal, but in Paul's comments he is basically getting the inputs formatted from scratch - record, table and then the operation and finally evaluates. 

SnProTips of course gives a little bit more insight, still misses out on the ACL.

The reason I asked this is because I see the GlideSecurityManager object used to evaluate the permissions fetched in a '/' separated input.

for e.g. record/incident/write

But I am looking for the space where it gives more insight into why the input has to be in this format?

If it because the hasRightsTo is defined to fetch inputs in this manner?
