The Axsy Config Tool provides a way to whitelist specific users who, instead of receiving the latest published App Config Version, will instead receive the latest draft version. This allows for easier deployment of configuration changes to users who are performing development or testing.



IMPORTANT: For a user to be able to make use of draft config versions, they must have access to the Salesforce Tooling API, via the "View Setup & Configuration" permission in Salesforce.


Checking Access to Salesforce Tooling API

  1. Determine target users Profile e.g, System Administrator from Setup ➞ Users ➞ Profile
  2. Navigate to Setup, click the relevant Profile from the list of User Profiles
  3. From System  ➞  System Permissions locate the View Setup and Configuration permission and ensure it is checked.
