Please help me on how to get this logic "gs.hasRightsTo("ui/context_menu.show_xml/read", null) "

Please help me on how to get this logic "gs.hasRightsTo("ui/context_menu.show_xml/read", null) " to check whether the user has access to this Context menu.

Thank you.

I'm pretty sure that is analogous to

gs.hasRole('admin')

Hi.

This is ACL check

But it is old, so is not working with new releases and gives access only to role 'admin'

The ACL type 'ui' does not exist anymore.

You may change type to 'ui_page' like:

gs.hasRightsTo("ui_page/context_menu.show_xml/read", null) [...]

and create ACL with type 'ui_page', operation 'read' and name 'context_menu.show_xml'

Once you get ACL created you can manage access like to other resources, e.g. record.
