Login access token security rule order

Hi,

In what order will the allocation of a login access token be done by a security order?

Example:

- Two pools with each 10 tokens.

  • Security rule pool 1: Usergroup = Login access
  • Security rule pool 2: Usergroup = Login access and Dashboard = Employee

Do i need to specify anything to make sure that a user that has the Employee properties does not uses tokens from pool 1?

Hey Tom,

Yes, I'd expect so.

On my end, I have the following rules:

Pool 1: ((user.userId like "*"))

Pool 1: ((user.userId like "*" and user.name like "*"))

When simulating users, the users use tokens from Pool 1.

So something like Usergroup = Login access AND Dashboard != Employee seems like a valid strategy (may need to experiment with user.dashboard.Empty() potentially).


Hope that helps.

Hi,

Maybe mto‌ or ltu‌ can take a look here ?

I've not seen a way to prioritize rules. I'd guess they'd evaluate in the order defined or possibly to the most restrictive.

Personally, I define my rules to be explicit so there is no question of some getting (or not getting) what they are supposed to.

Levi,

So i need to make sure that no overlap in the security rules exists.

Yes, in this scenario with License Rules. If you want to ensure that a rule will not be evaluated as true to ensure that that pool isn't touched then the schema is:

  • A AND NOT B
  • A AND B
