Feature #2701

Updated by Luke Murphey over 4 years ago

The lookup table has to be shared globally in order for the “modular input” to locate the files, otherwise if shared at app level, you will get the following:

My assumption is that your add-on uses the “services” endpoint, which has access to globally shared lookups. In order to solve for this, you may have something similar to that logic:
Find lookup file app location
Use “servicesNS/<user>/<app>/data/….”

The need we have here is simply to ensure the lookup tables follow the app permissions to avoid sharing globally with granular permissions. In the interim, the workaround works too, just need to maintain each individual ones.
