Is it possible to create a role with view and execute access only (no save permissions)?

My team is looking for a way to remove the EPID Process/Object – Save permission while retaining view and execute access only. The goal is to prevent any accidental changes from being saved during production debugging. Please let us know if such a solution is available. Thank you.

Hi @ChunMeiZhuang,

This will be the same permissions applied to all the machines (run time resources), if you login to machine and try to do the debug in production you should be able to achieve your goal of view & execute but not saving of process/objects.
Maybe you could check that and provide the same access to the team.

Hey @ChunMeiZhuang

Yes, you can achieve this with User Roles under settings. I have tried this with few users where we had to provide only view permission to process and objects

Below are the steps you can try it out

* Create a AD group and add users to whom you need to provide view permissions

* Create User role is blue prism and select required permission.

Once role is created, you can even manage access rights for selected Process and object folder in studio!

Hope this info helps you 🙂

@soniya720

Does this setting allow the user to modify the process or object code for debugging purposes? For example, setting a temporary value for a data item or adjusting the code logic to run only in debug section (without saving the changes)?
