Comment 5 Shveta 2016-03-29 18:36:40 UTC
Doesn't work in 5.5.3.2 .
Tested RBAC on upstream . works there

Comment 7 Martin Hradil 2016-03-31 08:09:00 UTC
Shveta, please provide more info that "doesn't work".

But.. I'm pretty sure it works, tried on 5.5.3.2 with the cloudqe LDAP, test-user3 indeed can see a group switcher and can switch groups (see the attached screenshot)

Comment 8 Shveta 2016-03-31 15:11:02 UTC
Martin , I looked for access control or group switcher in Self service UI and couldn't locate it .

Can you please tell me the steps . I need to add a LDAP account first ?

Comment 9 Martin Hradil 2016-03-31 15:13:36 UTC
Shveta, sure.. the server has to be set to authenticate against LDAP, with the "Get User Groups from LDAP" checkbox checked - and the ldap user needs to actually be a member of multiple groups.

Comment 10 Shveta 2016-03-31 16:52:43 UTC
Martin , can you tell me how to make a user member of multiple groups.
In access control , i see that we can assign only one group to a user .

Comment 11 Dan Clarizio 2016-03-31 17:50:02 UTC
Shveta, you have to have your LDAP user assigned to multiple LDAP groups that map to the groups in MIQ/CFME.  You can not currently assign a user to multiple groups using the internal database authentication.

Comment 12 Shveta 2016-03-31 21:34:48 UTC
Able to switch groups for user belonging to multiple groups.

Verified in 5.5.3.2.20160318152106_92d2d67
