How to create read-only ACL to give to a single user? Urgent please

[Ashirav]

I want the user to have access to complete environment but ONLY read-only access. The ACL I have created is:

 

The user that has been assigned the role is still able to edit a few fields in the table even though he has been assigned only the read-only role.

Can someone please tell me where I m wrong? I am new and I need this urgently.

Thank you.

Hi Ashi,

For this you can assign snc_read_only role to the user.

The read-only role (snc_read_only) restricts a user or a group of users to read-only access on the tables to which the user already has access.

Refer Read-only role for more information on this.

Mark If correct/Helpful.

Thank you for replying Ajay. One query please, if I give the user admin access + snc_read_only access, will it be possible that he has access to complete environment but ONLY read-only access?

Hi Ashi,

I tried it in my dev instance, given admin + snc_read_only roles to a user and impersonated him, he can see all tables in read only mode.

If  the snc_read_only role is not already active, an administrator can activate the Read-Only User Role (com.snc.read_only.role) plugin .

Note: These role restrictions are in place even if impersonating another user with write access such as an admin.
