Case Level Permissions

Each QPR ProcessAnalyzer model has model JSON settings. These JSON settings contain configurations and settings related to the model. The model needs to be reloaded into memory for the changed settings to take effect.

The below defined settings are available.

Description

Permissions

Permissions section specifies data security restrictions (limit visibility) for objects within the QPR ProcessAnalyzer model. If these settings have not been used, all the model data is visible to all users having GenericRead permission for the project in which the model resides. It is possible to configure additional case level permissions by using these settings. The feature is only available in In-Memory core. Property Description Initialization Expression language expression used to make an initial calculation for all the other expressions within this same permissions context. This expression can be used to improve performance when part of the Case or EventLogKey expressions are common and thus they don't need to be calculated again for every Case separately. See the examples below of using the Initialization expression. Case Expression language expression determining which uses can see a case. The expression is evaluated within the context of each case. If the evaluation results true, the case is visible for the user. Otherwise the case, its events and case and event attributes are not visible. EventLogKey Expression language expression used to uniquely identify all the unique event logs created by case permission filters.

Examples of Defining Case Permissions

In this example, visibility of cases is limited in a way that only those users can see the cases belonging to a user group which name is same as the Region (case attribute).

{
  "Permissions": {
    "Initialization": "Let(\"groupNames\", OrderByValue(CurrentUser.GroupNames))", 
    "Case": "Region.In(groupNames)",
    "EventLogKey": "StringJoin(\"_\", groupNames)"
  }
}

In this example, cases are only visible for users whose user name is same as the Account Manager (case attribute).

{
  "Permissions": {
    "Initialization": "Let(\"userName\", CurrentUser.Name)", 
    "Case": "(Attribute(\"Account Manager\") == userName)",
    "EventLogKey": "CurrentUser.Id"
  }
}
