Permissions versus Data Access

mbezaire — Mon, 16 Oct 2023 15:00:19 GMT

I have a question regarding the permissions needed for a member of an organization to be able to develop apps for that organization.

As suggested in another post, an organization could grant someone development privileges by, say, cloning their existing role into a new role and adding permissions to Develop apps, Access to app center, and Create New API Keys.

Would adding those permissions to a role change the data access/visibility for that role?

In my case, I can see my own students, groups, and classes, etc, as well as public groups and classes. My organization is concerned that if they were to grant me the permissions listed above, it might grant me access other students or private /administrative data - can anyone confirm that my data access would or would not change?

Hi @mbezaire,

We recommend reviewing the Schoology developers guide and the guide sections on Role and User which will help you get started. Meanwhile, we hope that other community members jump in and share their insights on this.
