Restrict access to system page

Posted on by 245

Is there a way to restrict access to system page using a permission set?

  • RE: Restrict access to system page

    The page that I need to block access is 'System Page'. There is no object ID for that even to set the permission in a permission set.

    Hi, I recommend using Permission Exclusion feature, which is easier to set up.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    You can create a copy of the basic permission set and take out the permissions that You don't want to give user. 
    Then add new permissions on top. 

    The process is time consuming, but the needed task can be achieved.

    It might be possible to block user from specific pages in BC based on previous response and discussions. However, my question is that all users in in BC need the basic permission set, which already have access to all pages, this enables them to navigate the system. On top of that more permission sets are provided to enable user to perform tasks on table/data level. I'm not sure how to exclude user from certain page cause user already has basic permission set and most default permission sets do not have the page level permission in it. 

    Another option is to consider a 3rd part solution as below, which enable user to manage access to field/page. I haven't used it but seem nice from demo video.

    Hi,

    yes - permissions sets are exactly the thing that can achieve a restriction to specific pages. 
    All You have to do - is make sure user assigned permission doesn't have the Page Execute permission - for that specific page ID. 

    To re-check - You can view "Effective permissions" page for specific user in specific company.

    It is possible also to add a permission set where specific page is Excluded - but it will not work in case user has another permisison where Page ID = 0 permission is given.
