Data Service + UiPath App: Improving access Management improvement for GDRP relevant use cases

Feedback Data Service

When automating HR use cases GDPR regulation is important.

Imagine the following use case:

  1. We allow several departments to interact with an UiPath App that retrieve and update data from one data service entity. → Access to the entity in Data Service required.

  2. In the UiPath App we only want them to interact with data from their department. We want to restrict access to other departments. → We can use look up functions in the App.

  3. In the App the access is GDPR compliant. But a clever user could open the Data Service and has access to the whole dataset including data from the other departments.

Feedback / Change request:
It would be great, if we could deny them from opening the entity in data service while still enable them to retrieve and update the data within the App.

  • One idea would be to add a further permission check box: “UiPath App access”

Yes, one could create many different Data Services with different permissions. But this would be a lot of administrative work and reduce oversight.

@ppr I haven’t found my initial request about which we were talking. Therefore, I just created it again. Maybe it will get voted this time :slight_smile:
