How do I give only "view" role or permission to a user to certain tables?

[sifynm]

                  As per the URL: http://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Role_Delegation#gsc.tab=0   I read the following:

4.2 Preventing Roles from being Delegated

By default, the following fields are not delegatable:

admin

public

nobody

role_delegator: A user with the role_delegator role cannot delegate this role to other group members.

                My requirement, I have created a table by name "Sify Servers" and "SR IR Tables" which are as shown in the attachment. Please let me know how I can create an access for the user who should be able to only view these tables, but should not be able to modify any fields. I have tried giving him an "admin" role which works, but if I remove the user role it does not work. I have read through this wiki for creating roles URL: http://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Creating_Roles#gsc.tab=0   but not sure how I can implement it. If there are any steps to follow kindly let me know.

Hi,

1) First you need to enable the Elevated Privileges to write an ACL which can be done as shown below:

2) Click on the ACL module visible in your screen shot also shown below:

3) Once you click on ACL highlighted above in red then you would be getting the New button to crate an ACL as shown below:

Hope this helps. Mark the answer as correct/helpful based on impact.

You need security_admin role to create an ACL.

Check the below screenshot.

Hi Nandan,

If you want to restrict your table based on role then you need to check what roles he has. EG:- if he has itil role then mention this role in ur ACL.

On the record level of ACL , you can perform different type of operations.

coming back to your requirement.

simply give read access ACL to the particular role.

By the way while creating a table if you checked on "Create Access Control" then it will automatically create "READ" , "Write", "Delete" and "Create" ACLs.

You just edit the 'Read' ACL and assign ur roles there then it will work.

Thanks,

Dear Mr. Harshvardhan,

                  I am trying to follow this URL: http://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Using_Access_Control_Rules#Creating_ACL_Rules&gsc.tab=0 for creating an access list on ServiceNow which is not working for me. Could you please let me know how to create a new one which would help?

Hi Nandan,

you can either create a seprate ACL as shloke04 suggested .

Or

Go to the table System Definition > Tables> search table "u_cmdb_ci_sify_server" .

Open the table and go to the Access Control related list. you will find 4 ACL there . just assign your role in read ACL.

Thanks,

Harshvardhan
