Mapped Security for Dynamics

The Dynamics Connector supports mapped security, but the following Dynamics security features are not supported:

  • Field-based security. In Microsoft Dynamics you can grant or deny access to specific fields. This is not supported in IDOL, where users who have permission to view a document can see all of the fields indexed by the connector. This means that IDOL users might be able to gain access to information that they would not be able to see through Dynamics.
  • Hierarchical and record-based security. Hierarchical security allows users to access records owned by their subordinates. Record-based security enables users to view records through sharing. Although these security features are not supported by IDOL, both require users to have read access to the records, so IDOL users are not able to view any information that they cannot see through Dynamics.
