Configuring Feature Access Settings

SYSAdmins and Group Administrators (under group tabs) are the highest privileged users, they won't be limited by feature access settings and sheet access rights. They can change the design, access all records, and use all of the features.

You can configure the access rights for certain features within Ragic if you have a professional plan subscription or above. Simply select the user groups that should have access to use a certain feature.

Granting Different Feature Access Rights For a User on Different Sheets

Your users can have different feature access rights on different sheets. All you have to do is to add them to different user groups that have different feature access rights and sheet access rights.

For example, let’s say the following database settings are applied:

1. Amy is part of both the Sales and HR user groups.

2. The Sales user group is granted with the feature access to export Ragic data, but not the HR user group.

On the Sales Order sheet, if the Sales user group is set with admin access rights, Amy will be allowed to export the data on this sheet.

On the Leave of Absence sheet, if the HR user group is set with admin access rights and the Sales user group is set with no rights, Amy will not be allowed to export the data on this sheet despite being able to view or edit all entries. This is because the HR user group is not granted the feature access to export data.

Therefore, if you would like to allow certain users to use certain features on certain sheets only, you may create a new user group and grant the user group the respective feature access rights and sheet access rights.

However, if the user group "EVERYONE" is granted a feature's feature access rights, any user in the database will be able to use the feature when he or she has access rights to the sheet and his or her access rights fulfill the requirements of the feature written in the "description" column in the grid above.

For example, let's consider the following conditions.

1. User Amy is in the "Sales" user group.

2. The "Sales" user group is not granted the feature access rights to export data from the listing page.

3. The "EVERYONE" user group is granted the feature access rights to export data from the listing page.

4. The "Sales" user group is set with Survey User access rights on the "Sales Order" sheet.

If the above conditions all apply, Amy may export data from the "Sales Order" sheet's listing page.
