Security constraints creating new project from Project Workspace

Michael Domke · ‎03-07-2023

I'm hoping someone can explain what the security constraints are that prevent the UI Page from loading when I click New Project to create a new project from the Project Workspace.

I realize that users with the project_manager role provides the necessary access to this functionality but I have a requirement to allow users without the project_manager role to be able to create projects using this button.

I've already configured the necessary pm_project ACLs to allow these non project_manager users to create projects from the list view and was disappointed to see that those same ACLs didn't work for this new option.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi @Michael Domke,

There an ACL on the UI page, which is called when New Project button is clicked.
Below is the link (append the environment url): sys_security_acl.do?sys_id=75f41d5c73417300f7cd0601c4f6a710&sysparm_record_target=sys_security_acl&sysparm_record_row=1&sysparm_record_rows=1&sysparm_record_list=name%3Dpm_home_page_create_project%5Etype%3Dui_page%5Eoperation%3Dread%5EORDERBYname

Make sure if you are using any custom role, please add the same to this ACL. since the UI page uses this acl to execute.

Thanks

Nootan

Hi,

Sounds good. Let us know how it goes and if they do upgrade, you now know where to go within UI Builder to adjust things further for this custom role 😉

In the future, if you do research on your own, reference another link, check a specific record (UI Page, etc.), please mention that in your post as well so that we don't reply with information you find irrelevant or not applicable. This helps us help you, faster!

Thanks!
