Granting Runtime Permissions on Perspectives
You must grant runtime permissions to the users and groups that you want to be able to query published versions of a perspective. Users can query perspectives, as they can query cubes, with client BI software, such as Tableau Desktop and Microsoft Excel.
Before you begin
You must be either an administrator for your AtScale organization or a super user to set runtime permissions on perspectives.
About this task
There are two runtime permissions that you can grant:
Procedure
When using the classic version of the Projects section in the Design Center:
- Open the overview page for the project in which the perspective is located.
- In the Cubes section, find the name of the base cube for the perspective and then look under that for the name of the perspective.
- Click the "gear" icon next to the name of the perspective and click Security. The Perspective Permissions dialog opens. By default, all of the groups and users in your AtScale organization are granted the runtime permissions on the perspective.
- Revoke permissions from users and groups, and then click Save. The changes are not in effect until after the project is re-published.
When using the new redesigned version of the Projects section (see Projects and Cubes):
-
Open the overview page for the project in which the perspective is located.
-
In the Cubes section, find the name of the base cube for the perspective and choose it.
-
Choose Perspectives on the top.
-
Open the menu for the perspective you need, and choose Security.
The Perspective Permissions dialog opens. By default, all of the groups and users in your AtScale organization are granted the runtime permissions on the perspective.
-
Revoke permissions from users and groups, and then click Save. The changes are not in effect until after the project is re-published.
