Prerequisite
To allow to determine which models your user can access in , the connected user must have read permissions forir.model.access (an internal model that manages access rights). While this permission is reserved typically for administrators, you can grant it to any user by creating a service group, as explained below:
- As an administrator, open the settings page and enable developer mode. If this mode is not available, you might need to login as the superuser instead.
- Navigate to the Groups page (available below the Users drop-down list) and create a new group.
- Set Application to Administration and Name to Service Access.
- On the Users tab, add users who need service access.
-
On the Access Rights tab, enter the model (
ir.model.access), select the Read Access checkbox, and name your service group Inspect Models. - Save the new group.
