Hi Mark,

Need your help –

I am repeating the above asked question again –

“Need to share a homepage with group/groups or user/users.
I have already searched this is community and found there is no OOB way of doing it today”

Any fix or solution ?

In reply to David.

Hey David, that is possible but would have to be done within the context of the license agreement your organization has with ServiceNow. It actually has nothing to do with the homepage itself however. What you would need to do is open up the security of every table that needs to be presented on that homepage so that the appropriate people can see it. That would be done through ACLs and before query business rules and is going to depend on your specific setup. This SNGuru post (along with the SN community site for specific questions) should help you along with those concepts.

Is there a way to open up the ESS homepage so that non-roled users see the same data as ITIL users? My company has multiple OPCO’s so ESS users are only seeing ticket data for their particular OPCO where i would like to present a ticket overview for the whole group.

In reply to Netesh. The only way is to grant those groups/users a role (which can be assigned in the 'Read roles' field of the homepage record).

Hi Mark,

Is there anyway we can share a homepage with one particular group.
I have already searched this is community and found there is no OOB way of doing it today.

In reply to Simon Willson. Only way I can think of is a UI script hack, but that would be likely to break during a future upgrade.

Is there a way to hide the “Switch to page” drop-down menu? For me in Geneva, the ‘glide.home.add_content.role’ system property doesn’t affect the that menu.

I could make it so that they don’t have access to any other page, but it would be cleaner if it just wasn’t showing.
