Power FX for Custom created button

Hi All
I've created a custom button using PowerApps command bar on Order entity
The button should be visible to user only with particular security roles likes Role1, Role2, Role3
users with any of these roles should only access the button and for rest all the users, the button should be hide/disabled.
How to achieve this using Power-Fx formula or any JS.

Hi，

You can take advantage of Ribbon Workbench and JavaScript to achieve it.

--Get users' security roles to compare them with specific roles and then based on that we return true/false to show/hide the button using ribbon workbench enable rule.

Checking security roles of the current user.

1)getGlobalContext.userSettings (Client API reference)

Returns information about the current user settings.

var userSettings = Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext().userSettings

2)userSettings.roles

Please refer to the following blogs for detailed steps:
