what is *.* ACL in servicenow?

[Ranj1]

what is *.* ACL in servicenow? and how it different from * ACL.

[Sebastian R_]

*.* is the top level field ACLs. So every field which doesn´t have an own field ACL will use this ACL.

* is the same but is for record ACLs. So every table which doesn´t have an own record ACL (e.g. incident) will use this one.

Hi Ranj,

table.* means you are having access to all fields of that table.

*.* means you are having access to all the fields of all table.

Thanks,

Hi Ranj,

*.* in ACL Means all the table and all fields.

You applied ACL in all tables and all the fields in these tables.

Table. * is a field level ACL which gives Access to all field on that table. ... Both are table level ACL, But the thing is * is a wild card entry. Suppose None is restricting table level access and you provide access by using * , system can allow you to do the work.

Please mark correct or helpful.

Thanks
