Lock of author mode

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 10

Hi everybody,

is there a way to lock the author mode with a password, when starting the GUIDES app on the Hololens?

I do not want everybody doing trainings, to be able to change my prepared guides. I already checked to the settings in GUIDES PC and hololens app, the "power platform admin center", the FAQ and threads of this forum, but I can not find a solution.

Best regards

René

    @alfere2, Since the january '20 release, you can assign a Operate role (readonly) to a specific user, this will hide the Author/Operator selection menu.

    This is not high security but good enough to prevent user to enter inadvertently in Author mode.

    Hi alfere2,

    At the moment, this is not possible with Guides. However we are working on a feature for publishing guides in an upcoming release that will enable you to work on a guide and then publish it for consumption. We are also working on the ability to assign Author and Operator roles for users, so that only those who are creating/editing guides have permissions to do so.
