Hi @sathishtb1 

 

You can do it at the template level

@sathishtb1  i dont think we have any OOTB feature of lock and unlock the component. But you can place a container in template and use the lock and unlock feature for a layout container

What would be use case when you want unlock/lock a components , either you can use allow/disallow certain components via Template Editor.

To answer your question currently there are no OOTB functionality to support your requirement

Need to lock the component, as other user is not allowed to edit the component.

@sathishtb1 You could try using ACLs to control permissions to components using useradmin console.
