Hide UI Action

[DreDay3000]

Hello, I have created a UI Action that should only show for certain users. I have added a condition shown below. However if I impersonate a user who cannot create a record on the table, the button still shows. Is there a way to hide this button? it is the only button showing on the form

Hello @DreDay3000 

Have all OR conditions in the paranthesis as they will be evaluated first and then && condition.

(gs.hasRole("abc_template_read") || gs.hasRole("abc_template_create") || gs.hasRole("abc_template_admin")) && current.u_state != "review"

Thanks, the user I'm testing with has read and write permissions to that form but does not have create and the button still shows for that user. I have tried the condition you recommended.

Either of two below should work for you:

(!gs.hasRole("abc_template_read") && (gs.hasRole("abc_template_create") || gs.hasRole("abc_template_admin"))) && current.u_state != "review" 


(gs.hasRole("abc_template_create") || gs.hasRole("abc_template_admin")) && current.u_state != "review"

Hi @DreDay3000,

@Vishal Jaswal was absolutely on the money re leveraging parenthesis. Another condition you may want to consider based on your feedback is "&& current.canCreate()".

This essentially checks if the user has access to create a record in the related table (or passes can create ACL).
