Object permissions¶

Some of the possible permission and screen options for objects.¶
Whenever needed you can restrict access to objects based on the
user permission
(admin
, ticket.agent
& ticket.customer
).
Tip
🤓 Below is not set in stone 🤓
You can always adjust below settings with Core Workflows. This also allows role based restriction. 👀
Note
In some situations, Zammad internally overrules below screen, requirement and permission settings. This is because at some points you can’t set fields which would mean we couldn’t create the ticket.
This currently affects:
About screens¶
Zammad cares about the screen you’re going to use the object in.
- create
Every time you use a creation dialogue for not yet existing data.
- edit
Every time you’re editing existing data - viewing existing tickets counts as edit screen.
- view
Affects view screens of existing data like e.g. user profiles.
Note
This setting is available for the following object contexts:
User
Organization
Group
- invite_customer & invite_agent
Shown when using the invitation dialogue from “First Steps” in the dashboard.
About screen options¶
Now that we know the different possible situations, let’s talk about available options.
- shown
Show or hide a field.
- required
Set a field to mandatory. Forces users (via UI and API) to populate the field.
