Scripting User

Scripting User in the Roles Screen

The Scripting User system role enables the user to run special scripts inside front-end widget code. Before the Scripting User role will be respected by the system, the following configuration properties must be set:

ALLOW_VELOCITY_SQL_ACCESS_TO_DOTCMS_DB=true
ENABLE_SCRIPTING=true

Important:

  • For the Scripting User Role to work properly, it must be configured to use the Scripting Developer role Key. The default configuration includes this role Key, and the key should not be changed.
