Hi,


Is it possible to adjust user permissions at data tree level, or only for en entire schema? I would like to be able to set edit right for some users on certain data trees within a schema, but not on the entire schema.

The user's roles are defined per schema. It is posible to specify further restrictions on a per-entity (table) or per-field (column) but these restrictions are not user specific.


It would not really be possible to do this on a per data tree level, as user could simply create new data tree that did not have the restrictions.


We do have a longer term plan to make access control finer grain, allowing access to individual items to be controlled on a per user basis. But this is not currently possible.

Hi,


 


I do have some problems with the security configuration. When I tried to change the security configuration to ‘Authentication
within the Instant JChem database’ I didn’t get asked for setting a
username nor a password. So after restart the database was locked and I do have
no username or password to get an access to the database. Is there any file
somewhere saved where I can get these access data from or do I have to create a
new unlocked database?


 


Thanks.

Hello,
if you have set Current policy to "Username/password using IJC database" try to login using username/password = admin/admin. You can change it by editting text of the template. Does it work?

This is currently not possible. It is possible to hide certain rows by using SQL Filter extra attributes on Entity level but that does not work for columns.

Hi,


just an idea (I haven't tried it and thorough database knowlege would be needed): in case of an
oracel or MySQL database,  a view, could be created (inside the database system), which contains the
allowed fields. The access rights for the
view and the original table would need to be set correctly.



However, I have never tried views with a structure table, only with "normal" tables. One big drawback is, that the view is read-only. In any case, several users need to be established in the (MySQL/oracel) database.


Best regards.

Views on structure tables are not possible. The one exception is a view on an Oracle table with a JChem cartridge index. Views of these can be used in IJC. Also non-structure tables.

This page, plus the links at the bottom, provide a description of security in IJC.
