Issue

  • Users are unable to export and save the configurations set by the Service Access Policy.

  • Steps to reproduce:
    1) Start a clean bundle of Liferay DXP 7.2
    2) Navigate to Control Panel -> Configuration -> Service Access Policy -> System_Default and edit the Title
    3) Save the configuration
    Observed behavior: There doesn't appear to be a way to export the Service Access Policy configurations.
    Expected behavior: There should be an option to export the configuration after saving it, similar to what is available in System Settings.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.2

Resolution

  • The observed behavior is the DXP's intended behavior.
  • The Service Access Policy was designed based on Service Builder, the same as many other components in Liferay. The information in the Service Access Policy is saved in its own database table, SAPEntry, instead of in the Configuration_ table like other System Settings as well as in configuration files. There is presently no feature that allows users to export Service Access Policies out of the box.
  • To do so, however, the user would need to customize at their discretion.
  • In addition, a feature request for the same has already been submitted and can be monitored here: LPS-130717.

Additional Information

  • User can open a Feature Request ticket on https://issues.liferay.com. In the description, the reason can be explained so that the core developer can evaluate the importance of the requested change. The creator of the ticket will receive email notifications from the developers in case they have further questions for them.
  • Please note that the exact implementation will depend on the developers' decision, and the new feature can only be added to future Liferay releases. Users can find more information on how to open a Feature Request ticket by going to the following link: Requesting a New Feature or Feature Improvement
  • We have a channel called "Global Service Team" for further assistance with customization or development suggestions.
