Confiforms: Add users to page restrictions for secure file storage pages

its moi

I have a form, with file upload fields. In this form, approvers are selected in dedicated user fields. It was easy to add these as record owners by IFTTT when creating the record (thanks to the good answer on my previous question @Alex Medved _ConfiForms_)

Now I also need to add these approvers to the view restrictions of the page where uploaded files are stored securely. As these pages are created automatically when going for this option in form definition, I do not know how to reference on this.

I also thought of having another IFTTT that created a page for the files, but I am not sure if that is really necessary. Any help? THX

You cannot do that dynamically, but you can setup the form to have additional admins (could be a security group) - parameter in ConfiForms Form Definition macro

And these users will have access to the "secure" pages holding attachments for the form

Thanks @Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ , for clearing this up. As the additional owners / page viewers are changing with every record, I needed to have it dynamically.

I have done this now using an IFTTT which creates a new page with each record, another IFTTT which moves attachments there and a third IFTTT which adds the page restrictions for selected users.

Alex Medved _ConfiForms_

Yes, with this approach you have the full control

But if user doesn't have "Restrictions" permission on that space, your third IFTTT rule didn't work! How could we solve that problem?

So If I use create page with IFTTT, I should permit all users to edit restriction and this option (in picture) would be useless. Because If users didn't have restriction permissions, this option wouldn't work and If users had rights, so they can change it again!!

Sorry, I reply on a wrong field.

The original conversation is about completely different thing... And, honestly, I dont quite understand your question and the screenshot

The marked parameter tells ConfiForms not to add current user into the editors - which allows you to set up the forms in a way that they could create pages on form submit but restrict edits to such page (we have some use cases where the page MUST stay as-is (as it was created) after submit and that is the option that helps to implement this requirement)

Amir_6twruc

I want exactly what you said. Could you please send the page of confiforms documentations that shows how could I implement this use case?

Thanks
