Creating and deleting extended privileges
FileMaker as well as third-party developers may provide additional software products designed to work with FileMaker Pro and FileMaker Server. A product like this may require you to add a new extended privilege if you want to control who can access a database file with the additional product.
You can also delete an extended privilege that you no longer need.
To create a new extended privilege:
1.
Choose File menu > Manage > Security.
2.
In the Manage Security dialog box, click the Extended Privileges tab.
3.
Click New.
4.
In the Edit Extended Privilege dialog box, enter the appropriate keyword and description for the extended privilege.
Note  The developer of the additional software product should provide a keyword that you must enter exactly in order for the extended privilege to work properly with the product. Refer to the documentation that came with the additional software product.
5.
In the Access area, select or clear the checkbox for each privilege set that you want to enable or disable for the new privilege set.
6.
Click OK.
To delete an extended privilege:
