Issue/Introduction

Need to update project instance rights to users, how can you do that by XOG?

Resolution

The recommended way to do this would be to use XOG and remove the instance rights by calling the XML file cmn_users.xml and removing the instance rights there.

Here is the steps you can follow to update the information by XOG:

1. Use the cmn_users_read.xml XOG file to read user information out of the application
2. Modify the instance rights, remove the ones you don't need. 
3. Add the tag:
   <InstanceRights completed="true">
4. Import the file back.

• This should be possible to be automated in the GEL script by parsing parts of the script. 
• Use the sample files cmn_users_read.xml and cmn_users_write.xml from $clarity\xog-unzipped\xml
• Note using SP calls in the XOG is not recommended and the above approach is best practice
