Help defining user role

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by WebPortal 2,297

Hello all,

 

Can anyone please advise me definig a user role for a specific environment?

 

The user should be able to run an app, view and edit records in Dataverse tables, but not be able to navigate in the environment assets (apps, flows, solutions). And not navigate in Dataverse tables.

 

What kind of role should the user be assigned to?

 

Thank You!

    @WebPortal -

    I would recommend taking a copy of the App Opener role and setting your Table/Entity permissions to Edit and View only.

    Only users with Dynamics 365 Service Admin, Office 365 Power Plaftform Admin, System Admin or System Customizer role will be able to directly access the underlying Dataverse tables. For example, the below is what the non-admin user will see if someone gave them a link to the underlying Tables:
