Relationship between cell context menu UI actions and "Requires role"

[bonsai]

I want the UI actions displayed in the cell context menu to be visible only to admins.

I set the "Requires role" for the UI action to admin, but it was not hidden.
Is this not possible to use this on the list screen?

@bonsai 

then don't touch the OOTB UI action

Ensure you override that for your custom table

1) open the OOTB one

2) change the table to your custom table

3) add this in condition

current.canWrite() && gs.hasRole('admin')

4) Right click form header and "Insert and Stay"

Hi @bonsai , 'Requires role' should function as expected. Please check if there are any duplicate UI Actions—it's possible that another UI Action with the same name exists, and the role was assigned to that one instead.

If not, please share the UI Action name.

This is the OOTB "Assign to me".
It's from the Task table.

I verified it again with PDI and it worked fine, but for some reason in the company's instance it was displayed even without a role.

There are no other similar UI actions.

There are no errors, so I think it may be a bug.

@bonsai 

if you want only admins to see then use condition as this

current.canWrite() && gs.hasRole('admin')
