Hi,

Are we supposed to set RPD permissions using the online or offline mode?  I'm using 12.2.1.2 and I don't see any users/application roles in the offline mode.  I can see them in online if I "synchronize application role" under Identity Manager.   So I'm assuming we need to use the online mode?  Just confirming.

    Good time, 3310714

    You can add application roles in offline-mode by hand:

    Hi Frog,

    When I add the application roles offline by hand, is it saved only in my Admin Tool?  Where does that information get saved in?  If another developer makes RPD changes and uploads the RPD, would my permission changes get overwritten?

    Hi 3310714,

    Yes, cnahges will saved in repository. Another developer should open RPD-file you have already changed - then he will see roles, that you added.

    If another developer will upload the repository without your changes, then your added roles will be lost
