Adding PBAC Resource Types

PBAC Resource Types define categories of application resources, such as pages, lists, and controls that require restricted access. By integrating PBAC Resource Types, you can effectively organize and categorize these resources, ensuring streamlined and secure access control tailored to your organization's needs. This approach enhances security by enforcing policies that govern who can access which resources and under what conditions.

To effectively utilize PBAC Resource Types for categorizing your application’s resources, the definition used for creating the application’s resource module should encompass app resources. If it does not, and you need to add these resources, you can adjust the application’s settings via the Manage Application Wizard. To access the Manage Application Wizard, right-click the gear icon on the application record and select "Manage Application Wizard," as shown below.
