Checking Authorizations

Add the following code to the Integration event of your Logon Service:

// Grant the user EDIT authorization for the Netbook product
tables.AUTHORIZATION.insertRow();
tables.AUTHORIZATION.TYPE.value = "product";
tables.AUTHORIZATION.NAME.value = "computers/laptops/Netbook";
tables.AUTHORIZATION.FUNCTION.value = "EDIT";
tables.AUTHORIZATION.ALLOW.value = "TRUE";
tables.AUTHORIZATION.updateTable();

Create a form and add a table called Products with three columns: product_id, name and price.

Add a Repeater Control to your form using the Products table.

Add name and price to the Repeater Row.

Add an Edit button to the Repeater Row and name it editBtn.

Add a Before Form script to your form with the following code:

// Add some products to the table
tables.products.insertRow();
tables.products.product_id.value = 1;
tables.products.name.value = "Gaming Laptop";
tables.products.price.value = 499.99;

tables.products.insertRow();
tables.products.product_id.value = 2;
tables.products.name.value = "Netbook";
tables.products.price.value = 249.99;

// These products are in the laptops subcategory of the computers category
var productCategory = "computers/laptops/";

// Modify the repeater behaviour so that the Edit button is only
// displayed for products that the current user is authorized to edit
var products = tables.products.getRows();
while (products.next()) {
  var productFullName = productCategory + tables.products.name.value);
  if (system.securityManager.isAuthorized("product", productFullName, "edit")) {
    controls.editBtn.show();
  } else {
    controls.editBtn.hide();
  }
}
