Navigation Permissions Custom Build App

Becherer
Explorer

Hello, I am looking to only make a few views only available to a "Role". Lets say everyone will have access to the app named "Internal Views".

Lets say we have two user groups:

  1. Internal_View_User
  2. Internal_View_Power

 

I only want views in the app to be seen if you're in a certain group. 

 

This is what "Navigation menu XML" looks like.

<nav search_view="search" color="#425363">


<view name="Home" />
<view name="dashboards" />

<view name="Internal_Views_Dashboard" />
<view name="datasets" />
<view name="reports" />
<view name="alerts" />
<view name="search" />

</nav>

 

This is what I was hoping to do.

<nav search_view="search" color="#425363">


<view name="Home" />
<view name="dashboards" /> Permissions: [Internal_View_Power]

<view name="Internal_Views_Dashboard" /> Permissions: [Internal_View_User, Internal_View_Power]
<view name="datasets" />  Permissions: [Internal_View_Power]
<view name="reports" />  Permissions: [Internal_View_Power]
<view name="alerts" />  Permissions: [Internal_View_Power]
<view name="search" />  /> Permissions: [Internal_View_User, Internal_View_Power]

</nav>

 

 

 

Whats the best way to complete this?

Thank you for any ideas!

Navigation refers the access of dashboard of logged in person. Means if login person have dashboard access then navigation of that dashboard will shown else not.

So I think you should create a roles as per the group and assign that roles to user. 

Provide permission to respective dashboard. Please go through below links for same.
