Deploy Organizational & Functional Roles

Is there a way to deploy the security configuration for Organizational & Functional Roles from Development to Production?

Is some kind of binding needed?

Hello,

Thank you for your question. 

Please, note that it's not recommended to bind users, organizational structure, roles, licenses, and other administrative things to a package. It will be very hard to handle that if you decide to install that package after the moment when the client adjusts that administrative things according to his or her needs directly on the production.

Unfortunately, there is no script we could provide you with but in case you decide to bind this data and transfer it to another environment we suggest checking all changes on the copies before delivering it to the production websites. The organizational structure is in the "SysAdminUnit" and "SysAdminUnitInRole" tables and you are right, it's possible to bind it to the package via SQL scripts only.

Best regards,

Thank you Mykhailo for the quick response.  Appreciate the callout of the risks.  Based on this, I see makes sense to stick with managing security configuration directly in Production.
