Separation of access to portal designer vs the new designer

Our current environment is configure to allow general users access to portal designer interface and they are members of the designer group. In version 16.2, these users will have access to the new Appian Designer link now available from the header. I want prevent general users the ability to access designer and hide the link so it doesn’t display to these users.
Is there a way to hide the link from all users and only allow identified modelers access to the new designer without having to remove them from the designer group?

  • I see your point but we do use the environment as intended and that's how we trained when Appian first came into our company. We haven't moved out this space and maybe that's what you're referring but we have never been told we don't use Appian as it's intended. Correct, I don't see the admin link here but it's in other locations. I had to take action to prevent it from being used. Just because something is not showing doesn't mean people can't access, it's all over documentation so any having a forum account would be able to figure it out.
    Anyhow, that's not my issue at the moment.
