New Security Role: Able to create Dataverse table but unable to add record

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 58

Hello Platform Community,

I'm currently working on a project where I need to compare and customize security roles in Dataverse, specifically focusing on the "System Customizer" and a copied version of the "Environment Maker" role.

I've successfully extended permissions using privilege delegation, allowing me to create and modify Dataverse tables and columns with the copied role. However, I've encountered a challenge when it comes to entering data into the created table. It seems that the permission to add records to the table is not being granted even though I have the necessary permissions to create and modify the table structure.

Has anyone else faced a similar issue? Any insights or suggestions on how to troubleshoot and resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

To provide a bit more context, I've ensured that the permissions are extended not only to the table and column creation but also to the data manipulation within the table. Despite this, I'm unable to add records.

Here are the steps I've taken so far:

  1. Copied the "Environment Maker" role.
  2. Extended permissions for creating and modifying tables and columns. (Permissions: Full Access to Entities and Attribut)
  3. Created a Table in a Dataverse Solution
  4. Encountered an issue with adding records to the created Table
  5. Recognized in Admin Center that my copied role dont got any Permission for the Created Table

If anyone has successfully tackled this or has ideas on what might be causing the problem, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks a lot.

    I got a solution for my usecase. 
    What was my Usecase exactly:
    I want to deploy SAP Flows or other sensitiv content for Citizen Developer but without being able to edit this content in the new environment. 

    After i tried it with the security roles i
     was not able to edit the security role to my satisfaction.

    Then i read this articel in learn:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/power-platform/alm/managed-properties-alm

    I edit the managed properties for all content in the solution i want to export/import in another environment. I disable "Allow costumizations". After that, i start the deployment via pipeline. It worked as aspected. The Citizen Developer cant edit the Flows in the target environment in the solution.

    Different approach and maybe someone has an answer here. How would I need to adjust the System Customizer role if it should no longer be able to edit/delete everything in the environment but only its own content?
