Object structures for Work Centers
User interface elements in Work Centers can use one or more object structures to collect data. After you create security groups to grant access to Work Centers, you must configure the security groups to include the required object structures.
An object structure enables access to data in Maximo® Asset Management by using HTTP (REST API). The data can be protected by an object structure security mechanism that is available in Maximo Asset Management.
By applying security to an object structure, you can limit access to the data to only a specific group of users. The users can be members of one or more security groups. When object structure security is enabled, these users have access to all persistent attributes that are associated with the object structure data. This behavior is the default behavior for any object structure in Maximo Asset Management.
If you want to change this behavior, then you can apply extra security by implementing data restrictions. Any attribute that must not be visible to certain groups of users can be restricted. For more information about configuring this type of security, see Specifying data restrictions for security groups.
