View Only in 6.1.12

4 years ago • updated by 4 years ago • 7

I recently updated to ScreenConnect 6.1.12 and it seems to have broken view only settings.

Previously I had this in the Role.xml file
<PermissionEntry xsi:type="SessionOwnershipPermissionEntry" Name="ViewSessionWithoutConsent" AccessControlType="Allow" SessionGroupFilter="AllSessionGroups" OwnershipFilter="OwnedAndUnowned" />

But now it won't connect (without permission) unless I have
<PermissionEntry xsi:type="SessionOwnershipPermissionEntry" Name="HostSessionWithoutConsent" AccessControlType="Allow" SessionGroupFilter="AllSessionGroups" OwnershipFilter="OwnedAndUnowned" />

The issue with that is it removes view only access and let the user have control.

The ViewSessionWithoutConsent permission should work as expected in 6.2.12963.

Cheers,
