How can I give permissions to only edit News Article Content?

[CCSF-Syd]

Hi everyone,

I read this piece of documentation on granting permissions to publish Content: https://www.servicenow.com/docs/bundle/utah-employee-service-management/page/product/employee-center... and see that Users need the Role: sn_cd.content_manager to create and publish content.

My question is: how can I permission a User so they can create and publish Content but only of type News Article (meaning they could not create and publish Banner Content)?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

The news content is part of the Content Publishing, but as the news is saved in its own table (sn_cd_content_news), you can create/add an (custom) role and create an ACL to fix this. 

If you look at the example below, this one is to allow deletion of news articles, but you can also create it for the ''Create'' operation on this specific table, which is only for news articles. Then, people with this role can access the table and add news articles, but they cannot add other content types.

So, it would look like this:
Type = record
Operation = create

Name = sn_cd_content_news
Application = Content Publishing

Role = {Add your role here}
