Defining access to attributes in a view

You can specify the amount of access that users have to attributes in a view.

About this task

If the Edit icon is next to an attribute, you can define how much access users have to that attribute in a certain view. Typically, you can define the access for Owner, Choice, and Multichoice attributes.

Procedure

  1. Click Configure > Views.
  2. Select a view.
  3. For the attribute to modify, click the Edit icon.
  4. Specify access to the attribute for the view. Select the attributes to be accessible in the view. For example,
    • List: Members who have edit access to the List attribute can edit, delete, add access to all items in a list.
    • History: Members who have edit access to the History attribute can show the history of any attribute that generates history, or for the whole element. Do not provide edit access to History attributes in views that are assigned to low access members.
    Note: Attributes retain their item values even if the access to the items in a view has changed. However, if the attribute value is changed and the access to the items is limited, those items cannot be accessed.
