Selectively display buttons on mashup based on User/Role/Organization

[Raccone]

Dear devs,

I am asking this question because I would like to know if it's possible to display certain buttons on a Mashup only to certain Users, and if it is, what's the best approach in doing so, i.e., filtering at User level, User Group level, or something else.

Thank you for your suggestions.

Best regards

@Raccone ,

You can certainly do that.  Create a service with a BOOLEAN output and bind that to the 'visible' property of a button.  In that service, input the user name and use services like:

Users[<userName>].GetOrganizations or Users[<userName>].GetOrganizationalUnits or

Groups[<userGroupName>].GetGroupMembers

to determine whether or not the user should see the button.
