Managing user access to mailing features
Campaign and Deliver use roles and permissions provided by the Unica Platform to control user access to messaging features in Deliver and Campaign. You must have permissions in Unica Platform and Campaign to make the required changes. You must also be familiar with how to configure roles and permissions in the Platform and how to define security policies for Campaign.
Controlling access to the list of sent messages
Deliver provides a list of messages that have been sent from your Deliver environment. Because the list includes links to messaging configurations, your security plans might require that you restrict access to the list.
Enabling the restriction to the sent message list
Users access the list of sent messages through the Message Overview option on the Campaign menu. If you restrict access to the list of sent messages, the Security Function ID property controls the display of this menu option and, therefore, controls access to the list of sent messages.

Enabling the restriction to the sent message list

Users access the list of sent messages through the Message Overview option on the Campaign menu. If you restrict access to the list of sent messages, the Security Function ID property controls the display of this menu option and, therefore, controls access to the list of sent messages.

About this task

To restrict access to the list of sent messages, you must update the Security Function ID property in the Platform configuration. This property applies to all partitions in your Campaign installation.

When you populate the Security Function ID with the correct value, the Message Overview option is available to only those users with a role that explicitly grants the View Mailing List Page permission. Users with roles where the View Mailing List Page permission is either denied or not granted, cannot see the Message Overview option.

Procedure

Go to Settings > Configuration > Platform > Platform-wide navigation > Main navigation menu > Campaign > Deliver Mailings. Click Deliver Mailings to display the configuration settings.
Click Edit Settings.
In the Security Function ID field, enter 7000. Save changes.

To see the results of the configuration change, log out of the system and log in again.

Results

Only users with roles that explicitly grant the View Mailing List Page permission can see the Message Overview link to access the list of sent messages.
