Service Access
Service access control allows you to restrict user access to specific services, e.g., to temporarily disable users from using a service.
The service access settings are accessible for every service in the Services menu.
Restrict Access to Services
By default services inherit access restrictions from the server-level, see Global Access. Follow the steps below to further restrict access on the service-level:
- Navigate to the Services menu.
- Click next to the service you want to restrict access to. The service access settings of the service open.
- Set the Service Access to Custom, see Service Access .
- Assign a restriction level to existing users, see Privileges .
- Click [Save].
When running the service, you are now prompted to enter user credentials (basic authentication).
Note
When access rights from the server and service levels differ, the more restrictive access right applies, e.g., a user with Read/Execute privilege on the server level cannot be upgraded to Modify on the service level. The Administrator privilege is the only privilege on the server level that cannot be downgraded on the service level.
Tip
Click [Reset permissions] to set all user rights to No Access.
Settings
To open the service access settings, click next to the service you want to restrict access to.
Service Access
Activate or deactivate further restrictions of existing global access rights for the selected service.
