Resolution

• Follow the below steps to create a custom role and to add the Filter:

  • Create a Custom role named Content View , assign the Organization and Location and then save it.

  • Add the first filter with resource type as Content Views and provide all the permissions by clicking the + icon and Submit.

  • Add another filter with resource type as Lifecycle Environment and provide all the permissions by clicking the + icon and Submit.

  • Assign the Content View role to the required User and then try removing the content view version.

Root Cause

• The Content View role was missing in the Lifecycle Environment filter and only Content Views filter was enabled . Once the filter was added in the Role then the version was removed from the Content View.
