Managing access to forms attached to a process

This article outlines the most straightforward method to grant a profile access to a form attached to a process.

This is an note/information message.

This method uses APIs. For more information about the use of APIs, see A beginner's guide to using beqom APIs.

To grant a profile access to a form attached to a process in the beqom Web Application, proceed as follows:

1. If not already done, create and publish a form in the (Undefined variable: CompoVariables_WA.Forms) of the beqom application. For the full procedure see the section Creating a Form of the online help.

2. Open the developer tool of you Web browser.

3. Open the form in the (Undefined variable: CompoVariables_WA.Forms) of the application and retrieve the UID of the object from the "Network" panel, as illustrated in the following figure:

4. Open the environment database, and run the following query:

SELECT name_profile, uid_profile from k_profiles

5. Copy, from query result, the UID of the profile to which you want to grant access to the form.
6. Execute the following API method:

Service	Action	Endpoint	Description	Body Sample
Object	POST	/api/objects/{id}/access	Where {id} is the UID of the form	Copy { "name": "PermissionName", "description": "PermissionDescription", "user": null, "profile": "ProfileUID", "role": "RoleUID", "beginDate": null, "endDate": null, }

The profile now has access to the form with the defined role.
