I want to let the editors change between shared layout and final layout in the Experience Editor, but currently, they can't view that option without adding a new role to them.
How can I grant access to that part using the security editor?

Edit: Sitecore 8.1, they have a custom version of Sitecore Client Authoring.

  • What version of Sitecore?

  • I would also add more detail to your question: what roles do they currently have, what role do you have to add to get them there, and as Rich said, what version.

  • I think this question is not about the role that is required to grant this permission, but whether that specific permission can be extracted and added to anther role / these users. Cmasterd can you confirm?

The minimal out of the box sitecore role that gives you such capabilities(considering no overrides were done) is sitecore\Sitecore Client Designing

If you need to assign a role to your own custom role you can give read access over the buttons chunk beneath /sitecore/content/Applications/WebEdit/Ribbons/Chunks/Layout Modes

And the the actual tab sections are located beneath /sitecore/content/Applications/WebEdit/Ribbons/WebEdit/Advanced/Layout where you should assign read permissions if they are not already assigned.

  • I don't want to add another role, I should be able to go to Security Editor and grant them permission.

  • @cmasterd In that case take a look into the core database. The buttons are located beneath /sitecore/content/Applications/WebEdit/Ribbons/Chunks/Layout Modes. But it is usually going to be better to just inherit the role to the custom role you have.

  • @cmasterd forgot to mention that the actual section is located beneath /sitecore/content/Applications/WebEdit/Ribbons/WebEdit/Advanced/Layout
