Nov 2025 App Builder Qrew Meetup Recap
Hello Qrew!
Thank you to all who were able to attend Tuesday’s App Builder Qrew Meetup. We tried a new format and had a customer shared a real challenge and the Qrew workshopped solutions live. Here is what we discussed:
- Adam Toms from Rocky Mountain Care collapsed a tangle of facility-specific roles into one dynamic role by driving access off HR-fed subunits in a Core Ops app, replicating a lightweight “QB Users” table, flagging “Current User,” and enforcing a simple record rule. The group appreciated how clearly he mapped a complex use case.
- Ideal future state: App-readable custom fields on the native User (e.g., subunits) and in-app visibility into group membership—so no replicated user tables or per-table helpers. The audience gave him a vote of confidence in his current solution to which Adam plans to roll the pilot realm-wide and submit product feedback to expand user field capabilities.
- Ideas the Qrew shared that Adam plans to investigate: Use Governance Core Apps / Realm Insights as a command center to see who has what, then Pipelines/APIs to auto-sync HR changes into the identity table since his organization experiences frequent turnover and prefers one attribute-driven role over many location roles.

- Governance Core App Instructions

Qrew Tip: If you stack roles, permissions are additive—test record/field combos carefully and keep HIPAA/privacy requirements front and center.

Enjoyed this session? So did I! Easily one of my faves of the year. If you want to share a use case challenge and workshop solutions with the Qrew, reach out and let’s chat! I am still looking for six more people to share their use cases in 2026.
Our next Qrew virtual Qrew meetup is the Pipelines Qrew meetup on Wednesday 11/19 at 12pm EDT. If you have any old calendar invites, please make time to delete all of them and use the events page or Community events calendar to stay on top of future sessions. Thank you all and have a great evening!
