Posted on by 5

I need to give to some marketing users the priviledge to create fields on enetities from customization. We don't wont to allow them create/modify other components. 

Since the create new marketing forms fields and need to map this data into an existing datavers field, they need to be enabled to create fields on their own. Is there an other way? 

Thankyou in advance, 

Federica

    Hi Federica,

    You need the system customizer role to create new field (attribute) of the entity. It isn't possible to create a role that would be able to create new attributes only.

    Privileges required for customizing apps build on Dataverse - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn

    There is a workaround possible, but it would require a lot of customization. You can create an add-in with the flow that creates a new attribute and run it impersonated. Then you create a UI that allows you to run this add-in. The user can input the new attribute name and submit it using the mentioned UI. The add-in with be using system identity instead of the user identity.
