Added rule to publish and replace App owned by someone else. Works for sheets but not for load script

gandalfgray — Fri, 13 May 2022 14:44:31 GMT

We have added rule to publish and replace App owned by someone else.

There is no error message at the publishing, and changes in sheets are being correctly transferred to the published apps, but not changes in load script.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Can you please share the concern security rule here?

@gandalfgray the easiest solution, rather than crafting a new custom security rule, is to change ownership of the published app.

The developer that needs to work on the app will then be able to duplicate the app and work on it as the owner and have all the associated rights and access that come from being the app owner.

@Nick_Asilo thanks for the suggestion, and we used that as a workaround, but that is not a sustainable solution.

However we just added the following simple App-Object rule (with Read/Update/Publish actions) and now it works:

((resource.app.HasPrivilege("publish")))

@gandalfgray I added your App-Object rule and it works for me too. But now our developers are able to edit an app directly in the stream. So they do not have to duplicate the app to their work stream and publish it afterwards anymore. Do you face the same issue?

Hi @derChristopher

No we haven't seen that, but that may be because in our deployment we have published apps on Production nodes only, and no-one can edit apps on Production nodes...
