Validating permissions for a Site User

Since Site Users don’t log in, you’ll need to take some additional steps before validating permissions for this type of user.

Note: If the Site Permissions you are validating is for a Community (i.e., Online Application or Portal) - you will need to remove the Page Stopper temporarily, complete the steps below, and then ADD the Page Stopper back. Please see steps 1 and 3 in the article Validating permissions for a Community User.

1. Navigate to Setup and search for Sites.
2. Click the Site Label for the Site you want to validate.
3. Select Public Access Settings.
4. In the Visualforce Page Access section, validate that the following page is listed:
   1. TX_Permissions.permissionScanner
5. In the Apex Class Access section, validate that the following Apex Class is listed:
   1. TX_Permissions.permissionChecker

Note: If the Apex Class above is not listed, you can proceed to the next step.

6. Navigate back to your Site and copy the Site URL into an incognito or private window.
7. Edit the URL by removing the homepage and adding the following at the end:
   1. TX_permissions__permissionScanner

For example:

https://targetxdemo-1234.force.com/OnlineApp/TargetX_App__OnlineAppHome

Would change to:

https://targetxdemo-1234.force.com/OnlineApp/TX_permissions__permissionScanner

8. Select the Enter key.

9. Select the Product/Feature and the Version.
10. Select  Validate Permissions for <Site Name> Site Guest User.
