Adobe Sign for Salesforce: Grant access to additional users/profiles

Search

During the installation of Adobe Sign for Salesforce, you may not have installed for ‘‘All Users’’ and instead installed for ‘‘Admins Only’’ or ‘‘Specific Profiles.’’ In that case, you may need to extend access to additional Salesforce users after installation.

Granting Access to Users (v19+)

The Adobe Sign for Salesforce package comes with four permission sets that can enable users with all of the object and field permissions that they need to use the system.

The permission sets can be found by navigating to: Setup > Administration > Users > Permission Sets

The four options, in order of privilege in the system, are:

  • Adobe Sign User - Minimum required permissions for an Adobe Sign for Salesforce sender user. Includes limited access to the required components included in the managed package: objects, fields, tab, classes and pages.
  • Adobe Sign Community User - Minimum required permissions for an Adobe Sign for Salesforce community user
    • Includes limited access to the required components included in the managed package: objects, fields, tab, classes and pages
  • Adobe Sign Admin - Minimum required permissions for an Adobe Sign for Salesforce administrator user. Includes full access to all of the components included in the managed package: objects, fields, tab, classes and pages.
  • Adobe Sign Integration User - All required permissions for an Adobe Sign for Salesforce integration user. Includes all admin access as well as access to all org data.

To apply a permission set to a user:

  • Navigate to: Setup > Administration > Users > Users
  • Click on the Name link of the user you want to provide the access to

 

The Setup Users page opens.

  • Mouse over the Permission Set Assignments link and click the Edit Assignments button

  • Select the Permission Set you want to apply to the user
  • Click Add to move the option from the Available side to the Enabled side
  • Click Save

Granting Access to Profiles and Users (v18 and older)

Salesforce has two profile interfaces:

  • The enhanced profile user interface
  • The original profile user interface

See Profiles Overview in the Salesforce.com help for more information.

If the enhanced profile user interface is enabled, follow the Editing Profiles Using the Enhanced Profile User Interface instructions in this document. If it is not enabled, follow the Editing Profiles Using the Original Profile User Interface instructions.

Note:

You cannot edit all the settings for standard profiles. You may need to clone a standard profile to create a custom profile, and then edit the custom profile.

This section describes the process for granting additional access using the original profile user interface. (See Editing Profiles in the Original Profile Interface for more information)

  1. Navigate to Setup > Administer > Manage Users > Profiles.

  2. On the Profiles page, click Edit for the selected Profile.
