Hide Export Context Menu in List View

ican · ‎04-25-2025

Use Case:
I want to hide the Export Context Menu in List View based on the roles or users.

I know you can add condition in the context menu but I dont want to touch that since its a global scope:
!ListProperties.isRelatedList() && !ListProperties.isRefList()

Is there a workaround for this one?

Thanks.

Simply override that for your table by changing the table from global to your table and perform Insert and Stay

Then add your role based conditions

Then add the child context menus to it by following same procedure

1) open the child context menu from the global table Export, change the table to incident, set parent to Your newly created above record

2) Do Insert and Stay

Nope it won't affect

That's what we are doing in above, we are overriding it for incident table and it will only work and reflect for incident table and not impact anywhere in instance.

I believe I have answered your question.
