    Can someone advise on the best User Role (Create,Update,Delete etc.) to set for the following scenario:

    I have javascript REST create records that is viewable by users. The records get created based on the user interaction. I don't want users to manually create these New records - but want the javascript in the form to trigger them. What should my user roles be set to?

    Hi,

    A user role won't fix this. For javascript to be able to create the record, the role needs create permission. Your best bet is to do it in a plugin which can be ran as administrator to create the record, then deny create permission on the role.

    I don't believe it is easy to impersonate another user in javascript unless anyone else knows how to

    Sorry, an alternative would be to hide all create record buttons, but this sin't very nice or manageable.
