Question

Is it possible to use loadFromFile to load ad-hoc acl?

Hi,

I am trying to set access permission for each folder, however, it would be very time consuming using GUI.

Is there a way to load ad-hoc acl like load "normal" access permission?

btw, I am using 10.1M050.

Many thanks

Hi Yifu,

I doubt if there is any loader for Ad-hoc ACL's . Are you using PDMLink or ProjectLink? There are also other options like associating domain to a folder and having separate set of access permission defined on that domain.

Hi Bhushan,

Thanks for the reply.

I'm using PDMLink. Associate different folder with different domain is indeed a good idea, however, the sub domain will inherit permission from parent domain, which makes me cannot think straight.

A

┣B

┗C

This might be childish, if I want to let a user/role can only access folder C through A, and keeping B invisible to user. What is the best practice of settings in Windchill?

Many thanks,

Yifu

Hi Yifu,

Are you simply trying to hide folder B to users or even the content. If you hide folder B by not granting Ad-hoc permission, I believe the objects in folder B would still be searchable if users have Read permission on those objects.
