Action and Component Security
Introduction
The Actions and Components can be secured to control who can use custom tools when defining them (tools defined
manually in the Component without the use of the tool inventory). Security definition of the Actions and
Components is “most permissive.” For example, if a user is in 2 different groups and Can Use Custom Tool in
Actions and Components is enabled in one of the 2 groups but not in the other group, the user will be considered to
have the right to use custom tools in the Actions and Components. Also, keep in mind that if a user is a Release
Manager, he will always be able to use custom tool.
