Hiding user segment settings in Workbench

If your Guided Search application is integrated with the Oracle Commerce Platform (ATG) and all user segments will be created and managed in Business Control Center, you can prevent Workbench users from creating user segments by hiding these settings in Workbench.

You can remove the user segment settings from the main menu and launch page in Workbench by modifying the ws-mainMenu.xml file in %ENDECA_TOOLS_CONF%\conf (on Windows) or $ENDECA_TOOLS_CONF/conf (on UNIX). You only need to do this if you plan on managing user segments exclusively through the ATG Business Control Center, otherwise you can leave the settings alone and still use both types of user segments.

To update the Workbench main menu and launch page:

  1. Stop the Endeca Tools Service.

  2. Navigate to %ENDECA_TOOLS_CONF%\conf (on Windows) or $ENDECA_TOOLS_CONF/conf (on UNIX).

  3. Open ws-mainMenu.xml in a text editor.

  4. Locate the settings menu node, and remove <menuitem id="user-segments"/>. 

    <menunode id="settings">
    <menuitem id="user-segments"/>
    <menuitem id="preview-settings"/>
    <menuitem id="report-settings"/>
</menunode>

  5. Save and close the file.

  6. Start the Endeca Tools Service.
