How the module is set up in relation to the role？

[Qyc]

The following is described for Column Level Encryption： Implementation of column-level encryption begins with defining one or more encryption modules in your instances of the Now Platform. This process includes selecting an encryption algorithm and providing an appropriate secret key. Access to data later encrypted using the feature is role-based, with modules being associated with roles. Users without the correct role don’t see the field at all.

Hi @Qyc,

Answering your question directly from a high level and inital response to keep things simple: How are module associated to roles？

When a Module is created (or any existing ServiceNow modules) there is a role section and field which essentially restricts access to said module by the roles selected.

See the below screen shot for the Customer Service module. When hovering over any module you can see the 'Edit Application' icon to view roles which the Module(s) are restricted to.

Thank you for your response. The "module" I want to ask refers to the "Field Encryption Module" and I have already solved my problem, but I don't know how to close the current problem window.
