Discuss Appian ACD101 Exam Topic 7 Question 26

You have a record action that should only be visible to certain users under conditions specified by an expression.

How should you configure this?

ASet security on the process model.

BSet permissions directly on the user object.

CSet security on the record action.

Suggested Answer: C

To achieve the behavior where users see only 'active' vehicle records by default but can also view all records when needed, you should configure a user filter for the status field on the Vehicle record list. This user filter should have a default value set to 'active', which will filter the list to only show active records initially. However, users will still have the option to adjust the filter to see all records, thus accommodating occasional auditing requests.

I'm surprised this is even a question, isn't it obvious?

Wait, why not just set permissions on the user object?

I’m leaning towards option C, but I’m worried I might be mixing it up with another topic we covered.

I feel like setting security on the process model might be too broad for this specific action.

I remember a practice question where we had to set permissions on a user object. Could that be relevant here?

I think we discussed setting security on the record action itself, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best approach.

Setting permissions directly on the user object? That doesn't sound quite right to me. I think the key is to focus on the record action itself.

Selma 1 year ago

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to think it through step-by-step to make sure I understand the best way to configure the security.

Okay, let's see here. I'm pretty sure the answer is to set security on the record action, but I want to double-check the details before submitting.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I think I'll need to carefully review the options and consider the implications of each approach.

C is the way to go, though I hear option B works in a pinch if you're feeling adventurous. Or if you just really love making things complicated.

B might work, but it feels like a bit of a hack. Gotta love the flexibility of C though!
