New app - Remove access to the Settings area from non System Admins

I created a new App and shared it with my custom role and now all the users with that role can access the settings area

Then they can click on the settings icon and are able to view all the "Security" settings. Is there any way to disable or hide these ?

    Hello Ann,

    Are you looking to hide "Settings" both in your sitemap and on the top bar?

    What exactly are you trying to hide and why?
    If your security roles are correctly configured, your regular users shouldn't be able to change your security configuration.

    Now to come back to your questions, for the settings part of your app, if only admins need to access it, there are several ways you could go;

    1. Move the settings area to a different app that only your admins have access to
    2. Add a privilege check for each Settings sub-area, so that normal users don't see the Settings area.
      E.g. the privilege to delete a Business Unit, which is usually only something an admin can do.

    For the top bar Settings icon, you can't remove it as it allows your users to access their personal settings and other app related information.
