List edit ACL not working

kuttti · ‎06-28-2022

Hello Team,

I have a created a list_edit acl for some 'ABC' table, with ABC.*, role-snc_internal. So when I impersonate a user with snc_internal still it says that "Security constraints prevents from editing". Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey @kuttti ,

Please follow below steps:

You will need to create 3 list edit ACLs for this requirement:

Create an ACL for the table using "SCTASKs.none" with no restriction
Create an ACL for all fields in the table using "SCTASKs .*" with Advanced checkbox as true and in the script write - answer = false;
Create an allow ACL for the field you want to be editable using "SCTASKs.Assigned to"

I am using sctask table as a basis, you can do the same for your requirement.

Feel free to mark correct, If I answered your query.

Will be helpful for future visitors looking for similar questions 🙂

Best Regards
Aman Kumar

Hi,

you will have to ensure field level WRITE ACL is allowed to edit the particular field

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar I am confused can you please elaborate. All I am trying to do is give a particular users of a group list edit access to a one field.

Thanks!

Hi,

then those users should pass table level write and then field level WRITE will be executed

if field level write allows but table level write blocks then they cannot edit that field

Access control list rules
