Modules
Define permissions for the Module object
The Module object contains data about the modules in your tenant. The Access Control List allows you to define permissions for the Module object. Modifying permissions for an object allows you to grant access to actions that affect the object, which can be executed from API calls or portal pages. You can grant a role full access, custom access, or no access to the object. You can also customize the level of access users have to the actions and fields within the object. The TenantAdministrator role has full access to all objects.
Important:The Authenticated User role has read access to the Module object by default. DSI highly recommends that you do not revoke this access.
To define permissions for the Module object, complete the following steps in the portal.-
Go to the ACL page.Step InformationNote:The default location for the ACL page is Configuration > ACL. If the menu items for your tenant have been customized, it may be located elsewhere. For more information, contact your tenant administrator.
