Root nodes elements no visible

[elenav]

How can I do that no expand a root node if you are a kind of user? Can I do this with API?

We need that some root nodes aren't visible for some user but all of them are in the same repository.

Thanks.

If I understand what you are asking about, I don't think is is possible in EA 6.5, at least not until very recently.

There has been a recent change that might allow what you want. It allows root nodes to be subject to EA's built-in access control.

I do not remember if this was a change in the last few builds of EA 6.5, or it is new for 7.0. You should check the release notes for builds 810 and later (the EA 7.0 beta releases) or the builds up to 806 (the final build of EA 6.5. You can find all of these in the Latest News section of the forum.

What I want to do is that certain users pertaining to a group cannot expand root nodes, making that they will not be able to see its content, since in same repository they are working in different projects and each single group must have access to his root node (project) and no to the others. Now we control the access to the root nodes using the Security locks of EA. Now, the users of each group have locked his root nodes for editing, but they can see (no edit) the content of the other root nodes. What we want is to make “invisible” the content of the root nodes that aren’t locked for each group.

Could be made with EA, with the Version control or with the API?

Versions: EA v6.5 Build 806
         Version control: Accurev
