Form Permissions

To access a form’s permissions, first navigate to the Forms app in Site Administration (your site’s menu) → Content → Forms. Then click the form’s Actions button (), and select Permissions.

By default, you can grant these permissions for a form:

Delete: Delete the form.

Permissions: Access and configure the form’s permissions.

Add Form Instance Record: Submit form entries.

Update: Update form entries.

View: View the form.

Note that guest users can view and fill out forms by default. The Guest Role has View and Add Form Instance Record permissions.

Note: By default, all users inherit the Guest Role’s permissions. The Guest Role represents unauthenticated visitors of your Site. If you want to let Guest users submit forms (the default setting), it makes sense that authenticated users can also. To disable automatic inheritance of the Guest Role’s permissions, set this property in your portal-ext.properties file:

permissions.check.guest.enabled=false
