Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi CRM Experts,

Can any one suggest if I can create pure read only role for a user, because when I tried doing that on Dynamics CRM online it did not work out quite well, it keeps throwing this error when I'm trying to open the Account record

Unhandled Exception: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault, Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]: System.Web.HttpUnhandledException: Microsoft Dynamics CRM has experienced an error.

    RE: Read only security role for a user

    Hi all,

    I also have to set up read-only security role in Dynamics 365 online (version 8.2). I've done everything according to your instructions. Although I can see all records when using Advanced find functionality, when I go to any view within CRM I receive this information:

    What else is missing?

    Thanks in advance!

    Please make sure you have the following privileges and access levels selected in the Role editor for the role you assigned to the login user.

    Core Records

    • {FOR ALL YOUR ENTITIES}: Read(Organization)
    • User Entity UI Settings: Create(User), Read(User), Write(User)

    Business Management:

    • User Settings: Read(User)

    Customization:

    • Customizations: Read(Organization)
    • System Form: Read(Organization)
    • View: Read(Organization)
    • Web Resource: Read(Organization)

     

    It's helpful to keep in mind the minimum privileges you need to define for some common tasks. These include:

    • When logging in to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online:

    To render the home page: prvReadWebResource, prvReadCustomization
    To render an entity grid (that is, to view lists of records and other data): Read privilege on the entity, prvReadUserSettings, prvReadQuery
    To view single entities in detail: Read privilege on the entity, prvReadSystemForm, prvCreateUserEntityUISettings, prvReadUserEntityUISettings

    • When logging in to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online for Outlook:

    To render navigation for Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online and all Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online buttons: prvReadEntity, prvReadQuery
    To render an entity grid: Read privilege on the entity, prvReadCustomization, prvReadWebResource, prvReadUserQuery
    To render entities: Read privilege on the entity, prvReadSystemForm, prvCreateUserEntityUISettings, prvReadUserEntityUISettings, prvWriteUserEntityUISettings


    Thanks, Dmytro

    Hi Vinod Pagadala,

    The error is occurring because the User is missing write privileges for User Entity UI Settings.

    To fix this issue give a user a security role with write privilege to User Entity UI Settings. You can change User Entity UI Settings privileges from the Core Records tab of a security role.
