More Action Options Available to Scope OAuth Tokens

Four new action options can be selected for a personal access token or an application to scope what their permissions in Xurrent.  These new options concern the ability to import and export the Xurrent records that are registered in an organization’s Xurrent account.

The following actions can now be selected to define the scope:

• Import – Create – dictates whether or not the scope allows imports to be started.
• Import – Read – dictates whether or not the scope allows the progress of imports to be monitored.
• Export – Create – dictates whether or not the scope allows exports to be started.
• Export – Read – dictates whether or not the scope allows the progress of exports to be monitored and the download links of export files to be retrieved.

Note that without explicitly specifying that importing and exporting is allowed, the scope will not permit these actions to be performed for any Xurrent records.  When a scope allows imports and exports, this is allowed for all Xurrent record types, i.e. requests, people, time entries, projects, etc.
