Garu Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Hi, Is it possible to change a user's privilege set via script? The reason I asked is because I have created a "user management" for the supervisor to create manage users. Kindly look at the attached file and see if you could do something via script to change the privilege set based on the value of the "Privilege" field. Thanks in advance, Garu Users.zip
Matthew F Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 How about using the 're-login' script step to activate parallel user account with the privileges that you need?
Garu Posted September 23, 2011 Author Posted September 23, 2011 Hi mfero, Thanks for your suggestion.... I managed to do it. Although it works but I'm sure the experts might have a better solution. Please find attached. Users.zip
comment Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 There is no way to change the privilege set of an existing account via a script - you must delete the account and create a new one instead, as you have done. Also, you shouldn't be storing your users passwords - so when changing the privilege set, you should generate a random password and require the user to change it at next login.
Steven H. Blackwell Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Take a look at External Server Authentication. That can solve many of these issues. Steven

bcooney Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 There is no way you need 400 different privilege sets.
Steven H. Blackwell Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Again, the best way to manage these issues is by use of External Server Authentication. That's one of its principal purposes. Steven
