This page provides an example of how UI personalization can hide parts of the administration interface from users. In this example, you will create a new role, called **Form data managers**, and allow the role to access only the relevant interface.

When a form data manager signs in to the administration interface, they will see only the **Forms** application. Inside the application, they can access the recorded data of existing forms, but not any of the other form-related administration features.

## Preparation

Start by setting up the objects you will be working with:

1. Make sure UI personalization is enabled for your site (in _Settings -> Security & Membership -> Enable UI personalization_).
2. Open the **Roles** application and create a new role called **Form data managers** on your site.
3. Open the **Users** application, create a new user with the username **Alice**, and set the **Privilege level** to _Editor_.
4. Assign Alice to your site, and then to the **Form data managers** role.
5. Open the **Permissions** application:
   1. Select your **Site**.
   2. In **Permissions for**, choose _Modules_ and _Forms_.
   3. Enable the **Read form**, **Read data**, **Edit data** and **Delete data** permissions for the **Form data managers** role.

## Configuring UI personalization

Configure the system to display only relevant parts of the user interface to the _Form data managers_ role (i.e. the user Alice).

1. Open the **UI personalization** application.
2. On the **Administration** tab, choose the related values in the selectors at the top:
   1. **Site**: _(select your site)_
   2. **Role**: Form data managers
   3. **Module**: Forms
3. Select check boxes representing UI elements, starting from the **CMS** root down to the **Recorded data** tab under the **Forms** application. Do not select any other form-related elements.

Now you can sign out of the administration interface and then back in as Alice.

In the application list, Alice can only see the **Forms** application. If you open the Forms application and edit an existing form, you can verify that Alice only has access to recorded form records (the **Recorded data** tab).
