Disable Create Record

Admins can disable users from creating records in a board, by setting a role that prevents a user (with access to a Quabbly board) from creating a record for a specific field. Thus, a user can only view record input for that specific field, but not create it. You can accomplish this by creating a role that includes a subset called Disable create records from the role, but this comes with two steps

1. Creating a Role

2. Adding a user to the board

Adding New Users

To add users to the board
