Posted on by PT D365

Dear Experts,

I have a scenario where I need to implement a similar concept like , Access Team in Microsoft Power Pages.

Could you advise me on how to proceed?

Here's an example:

- *Parent Contacts*: Contact A, Contact B, Contact C.
- *Child Contacts*: Contact 3, Contact 4, Contact 5.

*Scenario*: Parent Contact A should be able to view their personal information and also be able to view multiple child contact, such as Contact 4 and Contact 5.

How can this be achieved using the Microsoft Power Pages Security concept?

Thank you for your assistance.

For the user to access their own Contact record they can do this with a Table Permission (assigned to a Web Role they are using) with scope = Self.

To access other Contact records you need to setup relationships between the Contacts (e.g. a Lookup or N:N) what you setup or use will determine what the Table Permissions need to be - generally this will involve a Table Permission with scope = Parent on the Relationship in question (in the new interface look for Child permissions) or scope=Account if just need the contact to access other Contacts linked to the same Account (using the out of the box parent account field)
