Trying to make Kickstart App not appear when not being Admin

This is from the top of my head … but doesn't the 'account' call returns the information on which capabilities the user has?

I changed the if-statement in runtime-app-definition-service.js from
<javascript>
if (app.defaultAppId === 'kickstart') {
…
}
</javascript>
to
<javascript>
if (app.defaultAppId === 'kickstart' && AuthenticationSharedService.hasAdminCapability()) {
…
}
</javascript>

Now I don't see the Kickstart button as a normal user (means <code>AuthenticationSharedService.hasAdminCapability()</code> is not null for me and contains the correct value).

But it is still possible to access the editor when you enter the URL directly (http://localhost:8080/activiti-app/editor/). I will take a closer look and I will post an update as soon as I found out more details about this.

you must use the hasAdminCapability() in the all begin of the all kickstart's views controller if 's return null value then use $scope.backToLanding() this method exist in all kickstart controllers
