A system administrator can assign user roles to specific personnel that allow them to perform first application installations only, or install and upgrade applications in a local instance.

Before you begin

Role required: admin

Procedure

  2. In the Roles related list, select Edit.

    Table 1. Delegated deployment roles
    User Role Description
    sn_appclient.app_client_company_installer Allows a designated person to perform first-time installations of applications displayed on the Application Client page that contain the same company as the current instance. A user with this role cannot install an application for another company.

    For example, applications for ABC Company and XYZ Company display on the Application Client page. A user with this role can only install XYZ Company applications when logged in to a XYZ Company instance. The user cannot install applications for ABC Company.

    Note: While this role does not grant a user the ability to upgrade applications, the system auto-adds a delegated developer upgrade role after the user does a first-time installation. The user can then perform upgrades for the application in the local instance. For more details, see System-managed developer and deployment roles.
    sn_appclient.app_client_user Allows a designated person to install and upgrade all applications displayed on the Application Client page.
  4. Select Save.
