Hi @Shirley7 ,

You can achieve this by writing a read ACL on the sys_attachment table.

if(current.table_name=="your_table_name")

{

if(gs.getUser().isMemberOf('your_group name'))

{

answer =true;

}

else

{

answer=false

}

}

HI @Shirley7 ,

To restrict the download of attachments on a form to specific users, you can use Access Control Rules (ACRs). Here's how you can do it:

1. Navigate to the sys_attachment table.
2. Create a new Access Control Rule.
3. Set the following conditions in the ACR:

• Operation: read
• Role: [specific role(s) that can download attachments]
• Advanced: [add a condition to limit access to attachments assigned to a specific user or group] ,the condition would be something like "assigned_to=javascript:gs.getUserID()".

1. Save the ACR.
