remove New Apps tab for viewer

Initially, the account manager can create new apps. Then, the account manager has two options on the Permissions tab of the Manage Billing Account page: let any user in this account create applications, or specify who can create applications.

Then, as more users join the account and start using apps, they can ask the account manager for permission to create apps.

the user 'XYZ' is set up in Permissions tab with 'Create Applications' = No and 'Manage Account' = No.

but as originally posted - in the Simple Project Manager they have in their Apps bar, 3 tabs:
My Apps     -   SimpleProjectManager  -     New Apps

Yes, being able to update the UI to NOT give users the option to click the new app button(s) would be super helpful and reduce the number of 'Create App' requests that we receive.

Hi Jim,

Currently there isn't a way set up for a single role to have their access in an app to the My Apps page and Create New restricted if the other permissions are not set to prevent them from creating an Application. Using the Branding option under the Application settings it is possible to 'Hide Quick Base standard menu options' This will hide the My Apps page, the Create new apps prompt and the dropdown in the upper right hand corner under the users name to test as user in an app or to access their personal settings. This would be restricted to just that app and would effect all users including admins within the app. 



If you feel being able to restrict access to the My Apps and Create Apps pages by role would be a beneficial feature in Quick Base, I would encourage you to submit feedback regarding this via our Feedback Platform - UserVoice - Which can most easily be accessed from the My Apps page in Quick Base by clicking on the orange Feedback tab or at http://quickbase.uservoice.com .  This forum is used by our development team to explore customer suggestions for enhancements / changes to the platform. Many of the items that have been suggested by customers have already been incorporated into Quick Base and I would encourage you to participate as well. If you do create a User Voice thread for this issue I encourage you to post it hear so that other community users that agree can cast their vote as well. Thank you very much for your time today. 

Evan,

Can you elaborate on " if the other permissions are not set to prevent them from creating an Application"? Do you mean there's a way besides the Branding settings to prevent users from trying to create new apps?

Thanks.

I think he's referring to account level permissions that can specify if a user is allowed to create apps or not, or if all users are allowed to create apps. The more helpful option would be to have the 'Create New App' icon/option removed, unless the user was specifically allowed permission via account admin access. 

I just find it amazing that at one time or another I'd guess half of my users (or so it feels) have clicked on the 'create a new app' button, old UI and new. I don't know why they do it, or why they end up on the my apps page to begin with. I do have two apps they use, so I need the apps page as a tool to in case the other 'tab' disappears from infrequent use.

I am just getting started with Quick Base and as an insurance company, and am DREADING the notifications I'm going to receive from everyone in our company that is going to click on "New App" thinking that it's going to do something related to our insurance application processing system. Sure would be nice to turn that option off!
