New 3.5 sc how to?

Hi, just looking through the new update, love that you guys keep pushing the envelope and improving weekly.

Maybe early/or missed the post on it , but how do you use the new sc?

I see under globals i have my db connection and my security provider.

so, does that mean, if setup in global I just dont put those steps in at all on each individual sc?

I tried that, i edited an existing one and deleted the db connection and seemd to connect, so then i deleted the security provider, but I then have the security restrict, with restriction to a user group called “admin” when i deleted the security provider my “permissions” drop down is empty and no longer contains my 2 groups to select from.

thanks
Darren

and if I then add back in security provider i no longer get the drop down to select the one setup…

Yes that's right. You no longer need to add a. Database connection step added before the database query step, or any other step requiring a database connection.
Same for the rest of the global options you see :slight_smile:

cool.

But what about the security restrict?

also, under global mailer i had 2 (mail1 and the one i setup), both were the same actualy and had a mix of use. I deleted mail1 and went to one of my sc to select the one I setup “Insyncmail” but there is no way to change it on the sc, as no drop down

Hmmm, if you have more than one connection how does it choose?

What exactly the issue with the security restrict is? Can you share a screenshot?

You don't need to add setup mailer step in your server action! You only define it in globals. Then in the server action just add send mail step ...

Easy, select it in the dropdown of the database query step :slight_smile:

Ah cool, I didn’t see that new setting.

screenshots. 1st one shows how it is now, with provider and restrict not in global, i get a drop down of permission groups.

then i delete sec provider as it is setup globally.

now I dont get any permission groups to select

It's not new Brad :smiley: It's been there for ages.

@dazmaster9
So the issue is that the permissions are not available in the dropdown? But the security provider is ?

yes exactly that. I deleted the local provider, and then on restrict i can select the provider but no groups. I have NOT clicked save, so it might be a strange bug that on delete local provider need to save for it to use global? dont want to start breaking site, already I have broken email as now it wont send email :frowning:

Ok we are going to check this and fix it for the next update.

okie dokie. I made copy and saved and bug is the same. now to try to fix my email :wink:

Please post different issues in different topics!
To debug server connect issues follow: Debugging Server Connect Errors

Also note that these new options are available as Experimental Features, so some small problems like these may pop up.

will do

Is a quicker release of a fix possible? Important bits of my project have stopped working and I’d rather not have to roll back to a previous version if I can help it.

Could you be more specific of what stop working and post the issues in separate topics? Then we can have a look at them.

I’ve already mentioned it in another thread. It’s the permissions list so I can no longer set them to only allow certain permited people.

Well you can … by adding the security provider step in your server action and not use the global option for it.
