Title says it all.
We want to expand the "user" Role to create scheduled Reports (schedule_search) and write them to summary index, for which a user capability "indexes_edit". Otherwise, he will not be able to choose an index to write when editing the report.
Is it possible to restrict the "indexes_edit" capability to only write to a specific index and not to all indexes per default? I tried to restrict it by the "srchIndexesAllowed" but this does not have any effect.
I don't think you can do that and it's not a good idea, indexes_edit would allow user to have access to all indexes when they navigate through settings--->data(indexes). That should be a admin-role capability....
Even if you create a new role with indexes_edit and restrict to specific index, they get access to all indexes...
It's a known issue in 7.2.1..
