Hide a component on workspace based on role

[Tapish Sharma1]

Hi Folks, 

I have added a data visualization single score component on landing page of a workspace. I want to make it visible to only certain roles .... How can I configure it ?

You should create a second variant on that page. Then apply an audience based on roles that should see the variants. For example, you have 2 variants, one with the data viz, one without. The audience would route a person with x role to the variant with the data viz. The person without x role is routed to the variant without the data viz.

Hello Tapish,

You can use componen visibilty for this. Follow the below steps to acheive it :

1. To do this click on the component that you need to hide and go to the configuration panel and click on 'Edit component visibility' button indicated by 'eye' symbol, shown below

2. Hover over the Hide component, it will show you some buttons. Click on the code button indicated by '</>' sysmbol. This will open a popup page where you can script

3. Use the below script and modify role as per your requirement:

/**

 * @Param {params} params

 * @Param {api} params.api

 * @Param {TransformApiHelpers} params.helpers

 */

function evaluateProperty({

    api,

    helpers

}) {

    var roles = api.context.session.user.roles;

    if (roles.indexOf('admin') > -1 || roles.indexOf('cmdb_manager') > -1)

        return false;

    else

        return true;

}

Above script says show the report only to people having admin role or cmdb_manager role. For every one else it will be hidden.

Please let me know if this works/don't works for you.

I Hope this helps.
