Editing which privilege sets may use an extended privilege
You can edit which privilege sets may use an extended privilege. For example, you can specify which privilege sets are allowed to open the file if it is shared over a network or accessed via a web browser.
To edit which privilege sets may use an extended privilege:
1.
Choose File menu > Manage > Accounts & Privileges.
Note  If the Accounts & Privileges menu is dimmed, your privileges do not permit you to access it. See the note below for another possible way to edit extended privileges.
2.
In the Manage Accounts & Privileges dialog box, click the Extended Privileges tab.
3.
Select the extended privilege you want to edit, and click Edit.
The Edit Extended Privilege dialog box appears.
4.
In the Access area, select or clear the checkbox for each privilege set that you want to enable or disable.
For details about the extended privileges, see About accounts, privilege sets, and extended privileges.
5.
Click OK.
Note  There are two other methods for enabling and disabling extended privileges:
  •
While configuring sharing settings for FileMaker Network sharing, ODBC/JDBC, or Instant Web Publishing, you can enable sharing for all users or certain privilege sets if your privilege set permits it. This method is accessible by any account assigned a privilege set with the Manage Extended Privileges via Sharing dialogs privilege enabled, so it can be accessed by accounts that are not assigned the Full Access privilege set. For more information, see Editing other privileges, Sharing databases on a network, Sharing FileMaker Pro data via ODBC or JDBC, or Publishing databases on the web.
  •
While editing a privilege set, you can enable or disable extended privileges for it. For more information, see Editing extended privileges for a privilege set. (This method requires Full Access privileges.)
