Question

Show When Record Action field in a table

Hello, 

Does anyone know if it is possible to make a related action visible or not depending on the user?.
Because I want only the user who performed the action to be able to edit it again, this is my table

Thank you very much

Visibility of related actions is controlled in the record type editor. This is because you want to manage that in a central place and not individual for every interface and accidentally create a loophole.

And how can I do it?

To achieve this, you must store the creator or action performer in some field of the record. And then you can apply the record action security on that field. By doing this, the user present in that field will only be able to view the action.
