Prohibit to view Activity Tracking for certain roles

Hello,

I tried to search for this, but was not succesful. Due to data security reasons, I would like to prohibit a certain role to see the activity tracking, but it seems not possible.

It seems that I could only deactivate the activity tracking completely.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Andreas,

unfortunately, the activity view is tied to the view_projects permission for historic reasons. It wouldn’t be too hard to change that (i.e., add a new permission view_activity that controls that).

Please open a feature request and add it to the wish list - we will consider it when reworking the activity.

For anyone interesting in fixing this, we do welcome PRs on that end. It’s quite easy to add a new permission (check config/initializers/permissions.rb, where you’ll have to move the activities: [:index] to the newly created permission).

Best,
Oliver
