Configuring ACL for XMLStore Objects

This topic describes the procedure to configure ACL for the XMLStore objects.

Before you begin this task: You must have the role of systemAdmin or Administrator.


You can define ACLs for the XMLStore objects using the XMLStore Explorer and authorize the access permissions on applications, organizations, users available in the XMLStore. You can provide the allow or block permissions to users and roles for accessing the XMLStore objects. This implies, the user or the user with the role (on which the ACLs are defined) will experience the impact of the ACL.

  1. On CUSP > My Applications, click (XMLStore Explorer). The XMLStore Explorer window appears and displays the Collection folder containing all the files and directories in the XML Store.
  2. Expand the Collection folder. The expanded tree list displays various folders containing applications and other objects.
  3. Expand the tree and select the XML object for which you want to set an ACL. Right-click the object and select Security. The Security dialog box appears and displays a list of permissions for users or roles.
  4. Click the Add button to set ACL for a user or role. The Organizational Users/Roles dialog box appears and displays a list of users and roles.
  5. Select the user or role for which ACL is to be configured and click the OK button. The Security dialog box appears and displays a list of permissions for users or roles.
    Note: If there are no existing users or roles, a blank window appears blank.
  6. To block the access permissions for a user or a role, clear the Allow checkbox, which is selected by default for all new users and roles.
    Note: To remove an ACL entry in the Security - <Service Group Name> dialog box, select it and click the Remove button.
  7. Click the Apply button and then click OK. Setting ACLs for XML objects involves an additional property called version that indicates the version for which ACL is being set. If the object is a folder under XMLStore Explorer, the versions are displayed in a drop-down list.

    The ACL is created at the XML Store objects
