By default, site visitors can access information made available in an active public site, such as the site’s pages and assets. However, to allow guest users to view or submit data to a standard or custom Salesforce object, you must modify the object’s permission in the site’s guest user profile. Each site has a separate Guest User license, so you can control access Salesforce object on a per-site basis.

To edit the site’s guest user profile:

  1. On the Overview tab of Site.com Studio, click Site Configuration and click Site Name Profile. Alternatively, if you’re adding a data repeater, data table, data function, or form to the page, click go to the guest user profile in the item’s dialog box.
  2. In the site’s guest user profile, enable the “Read” permission on the standard or custom objects you want to retrieve data from using data repeaters, data tables, or data functions. Enable the “Create” permission on the objects you want to submit data to using forms. All permissions that aren't set by default must be set manually.
  3. If required, modify the field-level security of an object.
