ACL permission problem

Question

Hi, App42 teams:

    My app is an ACL enable app, and I set the permission as public/read.

      problem: 

      1. I want to all the user can read/write some public document/record, 

          i.e.  I create 200 public record, I expect every user can fetch one record and delete the record. But I has set the app permission as public/read, so i don't have the permission to delete the record which i fetch.

      2. A insert a document/record, I expect B can write this record.

 

     Can you give me some advice, thanks for your reply!

Hi ,

There will be two cases for giving access to users for edit & delete record/documents.

First, when you are inserting the json document into No-SQL Storage Service you can set the default permission of read/write for users so that users can edit and delete the document.

Please find the code snipped below for set the default permission :-

HashSet<ACL> aclList = new HashSet<ACL>();
aclList.add(new ACL("PUBLIC", Permission.READ));
aclList.add(new ACL("PUBLIC", Permission.WRITE));
storageService.setAclList(aclList);

Second, set permission to your existing docs using grantAccessOnDoc method.

In which you can add read/write to public or a specfic user so that users can edit & delete.

HashSet<ACL> aclSet = new HashSet<ACL>();
aclSet.add(new ACL("PUBLIC", Permission.READ));

aclSet.add(new ACL("PUBLIC", Permission.WRITE));
