Event Receiver Infopath Submission

Question

I have a request that the permissions inheritance(library to item) in the InfoPath form library should NOT to be broken.

So what I am looking for is that the submitter group that has a read access to the form library, gains contribute level access or simply runs the submitting process with elevated permissions so that the form can be submitted. After the submission the submitter stays with read access. How can I make sure through the event receiver that the submitters with read access will be able to submit the form.

Can I intercept the submission process WITH the event receiver and run it under elevated privileges?

Answer 1

You don't need Event Receiver, rather you can do this with custom code along with your InfoPath form.

1. Open your form template in InfoPath Design mode.
2. Under Tools, choose Form Options -> Category -> Security and Trust -> Full Trust.
3. Form Options -> Programming -> C#
4. Now Drop a Button -> Properties -> Edit Form
5. This will bring up Visual Studio
6. Add Reference to SharePoint Assemblies

7. Use below Code on Click event

   SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
   {
       this.Submit();
   });
