Agent security
You can set up basic security for an agent by using the Security tab of the Agent Properties box.
The Security tab contains the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Run as Web user | Checking this option specifies the current Web user to be the agent's effective user. Note: The effective
user is the user under whose authority the agent runs. The effective
user name will be used for ACL access rights; rights to create applications,
replicas and templates on the server; and as the mail sender or document
author. The effective user rights are not used to determine the operations
the agent is permitted to perform; these are based on the agent signer
(the agent owner). |
| Run on behalf of | Lets you specify the agent's effective user.
Note that restricted signers can run agents only under the same authority
as their own -- they can enter their own name only. Unrestricted signers
and signers with rights to run |
| Allow remote debugging | Checking this enables the agent to be debugged through a remote debugger. Only Script can be remotely debugged; however, you can monitor or cancel the execution of agents written in Java™, formula language, or simple agents. |
| Allow restricted operations | Lets users who have unrestricted rights specify whether the agent should run in restricted, unrestricted, or unrestricted with full administrator rights mode. The default setting is restricted mode, the safest setting. This option has no effect on users with restricted rights. |
| Allow user activation | Checking this box allows users with editor access to enable this agent without affecting its signature. |
| Default access for viewing and running this agent | The default level for viewing and running the agent is: All readers and above. You can deselect this option and choose who you want to have default access for viewing and running the agent. |
| Allow Public access users to view and run this agent | Lets users who have public access to documents in an application view and run the agent. |
