If a user doesn’t have access to an FME Server App but they have access to a Gallery App that contains it, what do they see?

• A. They would see the FME Server App but they would be unable to access it.
• B. They would not be able to see the FME Server App they do not have access to.
• C. They would not have access to the Gallery App.
• D. They would see an error on the Gallery App.

Answer: (A)

Permissions in FME Server are layered: having access to a Gallery App lets you browse its contents, but access to an individual FME Server App controls whether you can actually use it. If a user can view the Gallery App but does not have rights to the specific FME Server App, the app will appear in the Gallery but be unusable. It’s visible, but interaction is blocked, often shown as disabled or locked.

This separation lets you discover and coordinate at the gallery level while keeping sensitive apps protected. The other options would imply you either can’t see the app at all or would immediately get an error, which isn’t how gallery discovery works when app-level permissions are restricted.
