Make a button invisible depending on the user and form mode

Posted on by EuniceG11

Hi,

I have 3 security groups:

1. Admin

2. Leadership

3. End User

On one of my screens, I want to make a button visible only when the form is in Edit mode and only for Admin and Leadership.

At the minute I'm using the following formula but it's not working as I can still see the button in Edit mode.

isUserInSPGroupAdmin || isUserInSPGroupEndUsers && Form1_1.Mode <> FormMode.Edit

Is there something wrong in the formula?

How did you assigned the users to the security group? It is a best practice to create Office 365 Security group and add people in there. E.g.

Office365_Admin_Users
Office365_Leadership_users
Office365_End_Users

You can lookup the login user in that group and if that exists then you can apply the above formula. There is a connector in PowerApps called Office 365 Groups that allows you to find people in there

Please mark the solution accepted if that resolve the issue

Hi. I've based my security groups off SharePoint list security settings.

Okay, so it is not a dataverse security. Do you have a Sharepoint list with the users and their access?

You can set the variable when you are going to Edit the record
Set(IsEditmode, true)

Set visible property of Button
(isUserInSPGroupAdmin || isUserInSPGroupEndUsers) && IsEditmode

On form success, set the variable back to false
Set(IsEditmode, false)

Please accept the solution if your issue is resolved

Thank you so much! With a little change, I was able to get it to work...

On the Edit icon visible property, I put:

FormWorkItem.Mode = FormMode.View && (isUserInSPGroupAdmin || isUserInSPGroupEndUsers)
