View Only Access to Entire Site

Does anyone have an efficient way to grant a user view only access to the entire database?

Thinking of an external auditor or a C-Level client, who wants to be able to poke around, but should not be able to create/modify/delete anything.

Outside of creating a role and then clicking on every single form and saying view only.

Hoping someone has come up with something more efficient!

Thank you!

Hi @shores6 

On what version are you on? On new 2021r1 and r2, you can find pre-defined user roles with ‘view only’ access for various modules. 

Regards,

Hi @shores6 There is no out-of-box roles that will provide View Only for the screens. It is suggested to List the Screens, and Create a new ROLE like AUDITORS with View Only Access to those screens.

Thanks

@shores6 , So you can assign the required View Only Roles for the modules, to the new Auditors role to get the View Only Access.

The above workaround can be used instead of having a new one role for all modules.
