Allowing Users to Create List and List Types from the Aptify List Selection Dialog

This procedure is intended for administrators.


By default, only users with administrative privileges have access to create new lists and new list types from the Aptify List Selection dialog. For all other users, these options are not displayed and new lists and list types must be created from the Lists and List Types services. However, an administrator can grant certain users and/or groups access to the list or list type creation option (or both) by modifying attributes found on the Configuration > Attributes tab of the Lists and List Types entities. These attributes control which users and groups have access to the Create New List and the Create New Type options found on the Aptify List Selection dialog. There are two attributes to control this function for each entity. These attributes are described below.

Lists Entity Attributes

  • AddToListCreateListAuthorizedUsers: This attribute is a comma‐delimited list of Aptify users (character‐based, for example “RSmith”) that are authorized to create new list records (using the Create New List option) from the Aptify List Selection dialog. The default value is sa.
  • AddToListCreateListAuthorizedGroups: This attribute is a comma‐delimited list of Aptify groups (for example, “Users”) that are authorized to create new list records (using the Create New List option) from the Aptify List Selection dialog. The default value is Administrator.

List Types Entity Attributes

  • AddToListCreateListTypeAuthorizedUsers: This attribute is a comma‐delimited list of Aptify users (character‐based, for example “RSmith”) that are authorized to create new list types (using the Create New List Type option) from the Aptify List Selection dialog. The default value is sa.
  • AddToListCreateListTypeAuthorizedGroups: This attribute is a comma‐delimited list of Aptify groups (for example, “Users”) that are authorized to create new list types (using the Create New List Type option) from the Aptify List Selection dialog. The default value is Administrator.
