Restrict access to non-case form within application that contains multiple modules/forms

Users
1

Hi,

I have an application that has 5 different modules with several forms under
each one. None of them utilize the cases functionality. We want to restrict
access to one form (it is the only form in the module so we could restrict
at the module level too) to only 4 of our 50 or so users. Is this possible?
I can only seem to find ways to do this with cases. Any help would be much
appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey Seth,

You should be able to use the "user case
https://confluence.dimagi.com/display/commcarepublic/User+Case" to
support this. You would attach certain user-specific properties to the
users and then you can use the user-case in your filter statement to check
based on those properties. Feel free to report back here if that page isn't
enough documentation to get it working.

Also note that the user case feature requires a subscription.

Actually, let me just confirm that this is possible and report back - there
may be another limitation that will prevent it.

(Confirmed that this should work - let us know if you run into any
problems.)
