Overview
You can use so-called pseudo-users, or users from metadata, when defining permissions directly for an object or for automatic permissions or named access control lists.
Products and Versions
M-Files version 9 and later.
Solution
Sometimes more indirection levels are needed. This is possible by adding the following registry setting on the computer where you are doing configurations.
Registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Motive\M-Files\<version>\Common
Value name: PseudoUserHierarchyDepth
Value type: DWORD
Value data: Number of wanted indirection levels. Default 2.
This registry setting is needed only while you are doing configurations and you can remove it or set back to 2 when you are done. The configuration will remain valid even if you reset the registry setting so that you can't browse to the level where the configuration was made.
