What is the minimmum permission required to create Public views?

Question

_{Wednesday, May 8, 2013 10:12 AM}

I have a requirement where there is a group of users who should be able to create, modify, delete views, but they should not be able to modify the list settings. I just want these users to be able to view,add, modify,approve, customize list items (except delete) and create Public views, modify, delete the views. No other permission should be granted to these users.

I have granted all the other permissions but I am not sure how to grant the permission for creation of public views. The manage list permission avaliable provides access to list settings also which is not required in my case. So is there any way that I can grant the minimum permission using which user will be able to create, modify public views? Both out of box and custom approach is welcome.

Thanks in advance!!

>Public views

Sorry about my last post. To create public view you will have to provide "ManageLists" permission. You can uncheck delete item and "Manage Permissions" options.  However you still can modify some settings in list settings page but at least you can avoid delete item and manage permission.

Hello,

You atleast need contribute right to create view in list. But i would suggest to crate custom permisison level and provide the permission as per you need.

go to site settings-->site permission-->permission level-->click on "add permission level"-->now select the permission, which you want to give user and don't forget to give below permission to provide access to create view-->click ok-->now assign this custom permission to user at list level.

Hope it could help

With Contribute permission user can just create Personal Views not Public views. My requirement is that a particular group of user should be able to create, modify Public Views in SharePoint 2010. I will have to create custom permission for this but I am not sure what will be included in this because I want Public views.

Hi Krishna,

Below is a list of all permissions levels available.

Your problem is that you wish to split the available 'Manage Lists' permission and I don't think that would be possible even if you decide to create your own permisssion level through code.

Hi Hemendra,

I have same requirement as above. I want to give permissions to a group to create personal and public views but not the access to list settings. In other words, contribute rights plus to create public views.

I didn't find a solution in the above answers. Is there a solution with creating Custom permissions?

Thanks
