I created a Quick Link for Employee Center (not the Pro version) to display in the Quick Link widget on the homepage. I don't need it to display on other pages. I can see the quick link and use it, but the non-itil users can't and I don't understand why.
For various reasons, I needed to create a quick link to the Knowledge Portal, which I have done. All users have access to the Knowledge Portal if they navigate to Self-Service -> Knowledge. When they click it, they get directed to kb_home.
My quick link does the same thing, it opens kb_home and is defined this way.
It is available to me on the Employee Center homepage
but not the users:
I don't have any user criteria associated with it nor have I assigned it any topics.
What am I missing?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I ended up creating a Support ticket and have the resolution.
The Knowledge Portal had two roles (snc_internal, snc_external), but the quick link I created and the quick link widget did not. It turns out there is some code that does security cross-checking and that was causing the problem. Since we don't have the Explicit Roles plugin installed, the solution was to remove the roles from kb_home. Now the end users can access the Knowledge Portal from the quick link.

Hi @gjz ,
You need to create a User criteria and add under available for related list for that Quick link record. See attached screenshot

Sandeep - I had already tried that with "Any User" since not all of our users have a role, it still didn't work. Only an Admin can see the quick link.
Any more ideas?

Hi @gjz,
You shouldn't need to add the Available For for the Quick Link to appear. This is only when you need to limit the access to it. You've confirmed if you manually navigate to the KB Portal (kb_home) as one of the users, they can access it...? I only ask, because usually Self-Service > Knowledge doesn't redirect to kb_home, but to the platform knowledge.do.
Can you test the Quick Link by assigning it to a Topic (from related list on quick link) and see if it shows up there for non-admin? You may need to impersonate another user first, because Topic updates don't always show immediately.
