Can non-Admin run AssignClientToGroup in a TI?

Post by jason »

We have an end-user that is authorized to be in 2 different User Groups (non-Admin), but not at the same time. Having both at same time gives too much access to data.
Currently we must manually change the end-user's Client Group whenever they need to switch between the two. I am hoping to write a Process that enables the end-user to switch Client Groups themselves.

The idea is to have these functions in the TI Process:
AssignClientToGroup('End.User','Group2');
RemoveClientFromGroup('End.User','Group1');
SecurityRefresh;

It runs fine for Admins, but the end-user gets this error:
"Execution was aborted. No security access for AssignClientToGroup"

Is there a way to make it work for our non-Admin end-user? Or will this only work for an Admin? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Right-click the process and activate 'Security Access' for the process. After this the process should work.

Michel,
Thank you very much, that works perfectly. I feel bad that I did not catch that in the TM1 documentation.
Thanks and regards,
Jason
