Want to create ACL to give write access only one field

[Asmita7]

Hello friends,

I am creating an ALC on a table. I have to give access to a group "Alert Managers" to edit only one field "Supported By" having "support" role. 

I have created one ACL :

READ ACL   --    Table.None   -- support role

WRITE ACL --    Table.field    -- support role

But the group members are not able edit the field.

Hello @Asmita7 

Check if there are any UI policies or Client scripts on the table making the fields read only.

Please mark this answer as helpful and correct if helped.

Kind Regards,

@Asmita7 You need to create one more ACL

WRITE ACL --    Table.None   -- support role

This ACL will allow them to have write permissions at the table level. Field ACL will govern their access to field level.

Hope this helps.

Thank you @Sandeep Rajput 

Will this ACL give access to edit all the fields ?  I need to give access to only one field.

@Asmita7 If the ACL is extending the write permission to all the fields then you can create another ACL

WRITE ACL --    Table.*   -- admin role.

This way only a specific field would be editable by support role and rest can be edited by a higher role (e.g. admin)
