PBAC resource types are fundamental elements that categorize the various resources within a PBAC-enabled application. These types can encompass a wide range of resources, like pages, lists, controls, database tables, etc. Establishing PBAC resource types is a critical initial step in securing access to your application’s resources in EmpowerID. Once configured, you can proceed to assign your application's resources to these defined types, facilitating the creation of App Rights, Role Definitions, and App Management Roles. This structure is essential for granting users the appropriate access levels to these resources.
Procedure
In Resource Admin, search for the application to which you want to create one or more app rights and click the Details button for the app record.
This action directs you to the Overview page for the application.
Expand the PBAC Definitions menu item, select PBAC Resource Types, and click Add New PBAC Resource Type.
Fill in the fields of the “Add New PBAC Resource Type” form and click Save.
Repeat to create additional PBAC Resource Types as needed.
Expected Results
Upon completing the steps above, you should be able to view records for each created PBAC Resource Type in the PBAC Definitions section. These records signify the successful categorization of your application's resources, laying the groundwork for further access control configurations.
