How to create ACL to restrict visibility of a field so that some users and groups can view this field

Nikita40 · ‎01-05-2021

I want to create an ACL for cmdb_ci_server table so that for a field, for which I need to restrict visibility so some users and groups will be able to see that field. So How can I create script in ACL to add this users and groups ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

So it should be shown when logged in user is member of CAB Approval or that logged in user is present in list of sys_ids in that system property

Is that system property holding multiple user sys_ids with comma separation

then update as this

answer=false;

if(gs.getUser().isMemberOf('CAB Approval') || gs.getProperty('cmdb_ci_server.os.user.visibility').indexOf(gs.getUserID()) > -1 )
{
answer=true;
}
else{
answer=false;
}

Hi Ankur,

Is there a way to achieve this using UI policy or Client Script instead of ACL?

Hi Ankur,

Thank you for your response, this ACL is making read only to users and groups which are mentioned in if condition, but some of other users are still able to see and edit that field. I just want no other user or group wont be able to see this field.
