Scripting Privileges

Scripting privileges apply to both the Axeda® Configuration and Axeda® Service applications. Users must have the Configuration - View and Service - View privileges for the other scripting privileges to work in both of these applications. For users who need access to scripting in the Service application only, you need to assign only the Service - View privilege in addition to scripting privileges.
