4 years agoThere is not a way to have a button change the Users Permissions.
An Alternative might be to have a button that adds a record to a child table which the user does have permission to edit. For example the table might be called Cancellation Requests (ie the record is submitted and now the user wants to update a status to CANCEL.
Then when a child record is added there an Automation or a Pipeline could be triggered to edit the Parent record. Automations and pipelines typically operate under Admin permissions so they can do the update to the Parent record..

That's a clever solution. In my case not sure it will work because part of this button is to create a new record and copy fields across too, while editing the existing.
Many thanks,
Greg

well a Pipeline or Automation can have many steps, like edit a record here and add a record there ....
