Automate User Group permissions

Hi Dojo,

I'm looking for a way to automate the editing of a user group. We would like to be able to edit the Permissions>Views of a usergroup. To automate which Elements we would like to allow the users inside of that group to see.

Thanks for the help!

Just out of curiosity, the common way of handling this would be to put the elements in one or more existing views, depending on which user groups you want to make them available to.

In this case you would modify the security on the views.  Any specific reason that this is more handy?  Because you have too many mutations in different combinations of users and groups?

The use case that we have is that we dynamically want to be able to select the elements we want to allow a certain user group to see, based on a property that we get from a third party system. We have over 15000 Elements and 3000+ views.

The new user group will have access to over 3000 Elements and these are spread across 1000+ views. Due to the scale of Elements and Views, we would not want to duplicate these views and also include the Elements in there. But rather go with the option to modify the user group permissions.

Hi Stacey,

A work around I found is to mask and hid the elements through automation script depending on the User if that helps.
