Naeem Sufi 3 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Hi All Just upgraded to 8.2.7 from 8.1.5 checking out how everything works in 8.2.7 Since we will need to provide access to new features I find that you can not edit the predefined roles Is there a way to Edit besides Cloning the Role and then editing it Also some of you who had upgraded from Pre-8 versions have you replaced Dashboards that were built using view builder Our users when log in lands on Views page and then they click from there to get to the dashboards Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manoj Chaurasia Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Hi Naeem The pre-defined roles have always been locked, however if you dont see the Roles prefixed with Domain. image.png1218770 57.3 KB These can be easily created and are editable. To create these roles go to the legacy home page and right mouse click on the Domains folder under Resources and choose New / Enterprise Domain. Give it a Title and Name it doesnt have to be anything in particular but as a result of doing this the first time it will create all the Domain Roles which are very useful and can be modified without cloning. Additionally when you look at the security (rules on this resource) on the new domain you will see it has assigned those roles for use with the domain.

Naeem Sufi 3 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 Thank you Chuck , I see those roles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Mills Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Hi Naeem I just wanted to suggest that cloning and working with even these roles that Chuck mentioned is probably a good idea. Mainly just so you have a backup of the original Role in case you need it. A couple of these Roles are new to me - like one to allow changing ownership. Just in case some of these only matter in 8207, itd probably be a good idea to create a new Domain (aka Workspace) with a resource template just to make it create any new Roles that might have been created for 8207. You can find out more about how to make your own Resource Templates in the Security manual if you think youd get some value out of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Suter Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 We made the Domain roles editable on purpose. WF always ships a copy of the current view of those roles in a read-only location. There is a nice feature in the admin console that compares your current Domainxxx roles to the read-only shipped copy. It will tell you what the differences are and there are buttons to update your roles with missing operations or complete replace your role with the new shipped copy. Since that feature exists, you do not need to clone the roles to see what happens. You can always restore roles from the read-only copy. But its always best to try the changes in your test environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Mills Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Hi Brian Thanks for mentioning the comparison utility in the Admin Console. I had no idea. Pretty nifty! For others like me who didnt notice this, check out my Domain Basic User Role. I havent made any changes to it, so it shows theres no difference, but I liked being able to expand the All option to see it. @evelyn.schilling I dont know if youre still working on Policy Design, but this might be useful. Heres a pic: image.png11661012 99.7 KB So heres how it looks if I add a privilege to my DomainBasicUser via Security Center: image.png801292 10.8 KB Pretty cool - thanks Brian!
