  • I did this training a couple months ago and them implemented a similar process for our model. In our case, we do the user set up and settings in a HUB model and then go over to the other model and import the list. For our version, I added to the what I learned in the training some enhancements allow us to select multiple items at the same level of the heirarchy. But this was a great launcing point.

  • This article is what I was looking for!

    If you have complicated permission settings or manage multiple Workspaces, I recommend that you manage Users with this method.

  • @bdeaton,

     

    In the above comment you mentioned that you were able to enhance this process and allow the selection of multiple items in the same level of a hierarchy. We have the same need with our user access and are struggling to figure out a solution. This video was helpful but only provides an example of selecting 1 item from the hierarchy. Do you have any additional details around how you were able to modify the process to do a multi-select?

     

  • Hi, 

    I am also checking for multi select in one hierarchy. Is it possible? I tried delimiter but didn't work out. 

     

    Thanks,
