Clarification on snc_read_only role

[pgrover]

Hi ,

I have snc_readOnly role on my insatnce , that's why I have the ReadOnly access to my applications.

But When I impersonate with someone , same is the result . The impersonated User has also the readOnly access.

But why ?

Hello Prerna,

The ServiceNow read-only role (snc_read_only) restricts a user (or a group of users) to read-only access on the tables to which the user already has access. This role is not intended to be the only role a user has. It is intended to be an additional role (in addition to the roles that the user normally has) for the purpose of restricting insert, update, and delete operations on the tables that the user can access as defined by the other roles.

Hi Karthik,

Yes , I have gone through this article .

I just wants to clear my doubt :

Does the Impersonated User will also have the readonly access to table?
