Roles

Role Types

In Domino Leap, a customizable role-based model is employed to regulate data access and application manipulation. Roles facilitate the assignment of data access and application maintenance permissions. Users or groups are allocated to roles with access components manually or programmatically through web services.

Role Dynamics:

Each role can be categorized as Open (dynamic) or Closed (static).

Open Roles:

  • Assignments are either static or dynamic via web service calls defined within stages.
  • Users are assigned based on data gathered during form submissions.
  • Example: A web service identifies and assigns a manager for each form submitter.

Closed Roles:

  • Users and groups are explicitly assigned within the Access tab.
  • Dynamic assignments via web services are not supported.

Creating new roles

Procedure for Adding Roles:

  1. Access the design environment and navigate to the Access tab.
  2. The Define Roles window will appear.

  5. Utilize the radio buttons to specify whether the role is Open or Closed. -->
