sys_user_group, sys_user_roles access from scoped apps

[hay]

Hello,

   I am working on Scoped app, one of it is features is to manage users and groups roles. I need to create forms in the scoped app to manage groups (add, delete and update), and manager roles in groups which both tables resides in the global scope. I have tried to extend the group table and user roles table. But, none of them seems to be extensible. I checked the extensible check box on both. But, it dose uncheck itself after refresh.

Adding a reference to groups, and roles tables to the another table in the scoped app is not working either. I have tried adding permissions and cross app permissions but nothing seems to help. 

My questions is are those tables meant to be used from scoped apps or we need to build our tables?

We are on San Diego release.

Thank you.

hello @hay you need those fields on your form which will refer to group and roles table ?

if yes you can do it i think there will not be any scope issues?

if not can you explain the exact use case and where you are trying to access those two tables?

Thanks

thank you @Mohith Devatte ,

My use case is creating a form to add, update, delete groups from a scoped app. Since the table is not local to my scoped app. I have referenced group table from another table. And built the form on the local table in my scoped app.

the form works and insert a record to the group table but with empty data fields. Any Idea why is it behave that way?

Thank you

The issue was happening because we are using the new App Engine Studio and that doesn't support extending any tables in scoped apps. We tried it with Studio only or from the platform and the group table was available to extend. this issue is resolved now.

Hi 

I am also having the same issue.
What do you mean by Studio only? Is it Studio inside the instance like below? Please suggest.
