About this task

Grant access to build applications in AES by adding users to the App Engine Studio Users group in your organization's development instance. Each group member is automatically assigned the sn_app_eng_studio.user role.

To restrict access so that users can work in App Engine Studio but not create apps or see templates, add users to the App Engine Studio User Limited group.

For more information about the differences between the App Engine Studio Users group and the App Engine Studio User Limited group, see Configure AES personas and roles.

Procedure

Navigate to All > User Administration > Groups.
Add users by selecting either the App Engine Studio Users group or the App Engine Studio User Limited group.
1. In the Group Members related list, select Edit.
2. On the Edit Members page, move each developer from Collection to Group Members List.
3. Select Save.
4. On the group record, select Update.
