retagged Jan 20 '17, 5:17 p.m. by Ken Tessier (841●1●7) Hello All,
We are using RTC 6.0.2 in our environment.
In general we have seen possibilities to customize in a way to make attributes read only. Based on operational behaviour > Save work item.
However we did not see non attribute presentations such as Attachments / Links present in them.
Therefore I would like to know , is it possible to make Attachments read only in RTC workitems ?
Business use case : There are few specification documents uploaded in few workitems and I do not want all the users to be able to download & read them.
Only users with specific roles should be able to download such attachments.
Kindly let me know if there is a way to achieve this.
Thanks,
Vishnu M

Accepted answer
Since its not possible to limit access at that attachments level, as an alternate, you may keep the Work Item itself restricted using Restricted Access field and limit the work item view to only those who should be able to access the attachments.
Here is more on how to go about this : https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/topic/com.ibm.team.workitem.doc/topics/t_restricting_access_to_work_items_web.html hope this helps. Ralph Schoon selected this answer as the correct answer

You are not asking for making them read only. If they are read only you could download them but not attach a new file. This would be possible.
You want to hide attachments for roles to prevent download and that is not possible as far as I can tell. Comments

Thank you Ralph for the possible approaches. Your refinement of the requirement: you want to prevent access to the attachments.
