Restrict certain fields for certain profiles

Would it be possible (in a general object I created) to restrct certain fields to be modified by anyone exept for instance the admin?
This would be fixed data not subjected to change and thus must be protected from employee hampering.

No. Field-level permissions are not available in GLPI itself. You could always create a plugin to handle that though.

https://glpi-developer-documentation.re … index.html

Specifically, I would think such a plugin would use the "pre_item_update" plugin hook to unset the changes you deem to be not allowed by the current user and then add a new message that would be shown to the user explaining the issue with something like:
Session::addMessageAfterRedirect('You do not have permission to update these fields: ' . implode(', ', $list_of_unset_fields), false, ERROR)

Re: Restrict certain fields for certain profiles

Thank you.

I'm still struggeling with plugins so this one would be a little over my head at current time.
