System folder not visible

I have role named "GCP US Alias and Redirect" and I have given full access permission for "/sitecore/system/Aliases" and its descendants as in screen shot below.

Access Viewer

Now I have assigned "GCP US Alias and Redirect" role to a user, When I login to sitecore as "GCP US Alias and Redirect" user I don't see "/sitecore/system" folder. I can just see "/sitecore/content" folder as in below screen shot.

I can see System folder when searched it by GUID as shown in below screen shot.

What do I do to make it visible at initial place when I open content editor?

Solution

  • Switch to the View tab and select Hidden items and Entire tree checkboxes. They are unchecked by default for non-admin users.

    If you don't see the View tab, make sure that either your role has Read access to it (/sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Ribbons/Default/View and /sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Chunks/View in core database) or that your role inherits from e.g. sitecore\Sitecore Client Designing role (check if that role doesn't have too much access rights for your custom role first).
