Section Access Doubt

tamilarasu — Wed, 29 Apr 2015 01:57:41 GMT

Hi.

I have created a small application for internal purpose and I want to share the file with many users. I want to hide one sheet and protect edit script option in the application. But it should be visible only when I open in my system. I have read many threads in the forum but I could not find how to implement the section access. It can be shared with many users, so I can't get each users ID. My requirement is just want to protect a sheet and edit script option to all users except me.

Please guide me.

Thank you.

In the script editor (using FILE menue on top) create a hidden script as very first tab, insert Section Access (by INSERT > Section Access Inline in top menue and set yourself as ADMIN and others as a USER with a general name like

Section Access;

LOAD * INLINE [

ACCESS, USERID, PASSWORD

ADMIN, JOHN.SNOW, WINTER

USER, USER, TESTPASSWORD

];

Section Application;

On the dashboard > Document Properties > Security change settings for

-Edit script

-Reload

-Access Document Properties

-Allow User reload

...

And do a copy for safety reasons...if something goes wrong, you might not have access to your own app anymore

Thanks for the reply Daniel. Unfortunately, My application is locked when I ran the below code, but I have a copy . What I have tried is just mentioning the windows login ID in the USER ID field. See below.

Section Access;

LOAD * INLINE [

ACCESS, USERID, PASSWORD

ADMIN, AS-VW/TAMIL.NAGARAJ, WINTER

USER, USER, TESTPASSWORD

];

Section Application;

I just want to protect the application with windows login id. Can you correct me.

Please have a look at the document attached as I am not fully aware about implications of Windows ID access.

Hope it helps

Cheers
