Configuring User Access

User access is controlled via the userAccess.xml file. The way in which you modify the userAccess.xml file depends on whether you are configuring a deployed or non-deployed application.

  • A deployed application - If configuring a deployed application, use the Configuration Administrator to modify the userAccess.xml file.

    After selecting the userAccess.xml file in the Configuration Administrator, you can choose to edit user access using either a graphical editor or an XML editor by clicking on the appropriate tab in the right pane. The graphical editor provides a user interface with dialogs, check boxes, etc. The XML editor allows you to directly modify the XML in the userAccess.xml file, for those that are comfortable with XML.

    For more information about configuring deployed applications, see Configuring and Customizing a Deployed Application.

  • A non-deployed WCC application - If configuring a non-deployed WCC application (which might be the Workspace application), open the userAccess.xml file in your local development environment.

    The userAccess.xml file is located in the following directory:

    StudioHome\wcc\version\JSXAPPS\WCCProjectName\

    where:

    • StudioHome is the directory in which TIBCO Business Studio was installed.
    • version is the version number of Workspace that was installed with TIBCO Business Studio.
    • WCCProjectName is the name of the General Interface Builder project that contains your custom application. If you are working with the Workspace application, this is “workspace”.
