Interesting question!!

 

I'm on 7.0.1 Patch 1, and did some testing with the HPD:Incident
Management Console (and the management view within), and taking API+SQL
Traces, the queries executed as defined by FB Variables, without any
"extra" sql attached, (Field 1, 3, 112, 60000... restrictions)....

 

It also executes as the user context 'Mid-tier', which is the internal
account, so it might be thought of as an "Administrator" level account.

 

I was hoping to find an "Impersonate User" entry in the API Log, but
alas, none was found. (hum, that IS logged right??)

 

I DID see where Mid-Tier was getting the user's group list, etc but
nothing was in the SQL Query.

 

I will (as Joe is going to do as well), perform some additional testing,
because that is an interesting conundrum of data-access...

Hello Jason,

 

I don't really have an answer to what you are facing but in case you do
hear something about what you have observed, please do let us know. Its
a nice to know sort of thing.. I may have time over this week to
simulate what you are seeing so if you can give me a test case scenario
of what you are seeing I'll check to see if I can replicate that on my
free time.

 

I am however on a slightly different patch level - ARS 7.0.1 P3.. Soon I
intend to upgrade to 7.1 as its a dev/test system, so could check on
both these versions.

 

Cheers

 

Joe

        ** 

        Hi all,

         

        I noticed a strange behavior with flashboards and row level
access. I am working with the OOTB Remedy Support console in ITSM 6. I
have added row level access on the various forms (Help Desk, Change,
Task) and those permissions are pushed to the SHR:ConsolidatedList
record. 

         

        The problem is if I login as a user who can only see a limited
set of records I still see all of the groups and their record counts in
the By Group flashboard ('Flashboard2'). This user should not have any
knowledge of who the other groups are in the system and their ticket
volumes.

         

        I know the row level permissions are working on the
SHR:ConsolidatedList form (also where the FB data is coming from)
because the user only see the correct records in the table field.

         

        Do flashboards recognize row level access?

        Is this a bug?

        As designed?

         

         

        Thanks,

        Jason
