The permission administrator can grant the permissions to edit and view the data dashboard resource.
Background information
When a permission administrator grants permissions to a user, the permission attributes in the Collaborative state and the Private state are different, as shown in the following figure.
Take note of the following points on collaborative authorization:
Edit: If a user is granted the Edit permission, the user can edit and view the data in the dashboard.
View: If a user is granted the View permission on a dashboard, the user can only view the dashboard.
Use scenarios
Scenario | Expected effect |
This allows Analyst A (Analyst A is in the same space as the resource) to edit the data dashboard in the workspace. | |
|
Scenario 1: Grant the edit permission on a data dashboard
The permission administrator grants the analysts of the workspace the permissions to edit the data dashboard only when you select Specified Members or All Workspace Members for Editing Permission.
On the Centralized Authorization page, select the workspace that you want to manage and select Data DAI resources.
On the Collaboration Authorization page, select Edit Permission and grant permissions.
The following figure shows that Specified Members is selected for Editing Permission. Analyst A is granted the permissions to edit the dashboard.
Optional: Synchronize permissions.
If Analyst A needs to edit another dashboard in the workspace, click Synchronization Settings, select the dashboard that you want to edit, and then click Synchronize.
For example, Analyst A is granted the Edit permission on Regional Sales Data. After the permission is synchronized, Analyst A can also edit Provincial Operations Data.
NoteSynchronization Mode supports Incremental Synchronization and Overwrite Synchronization.
Incremental Synchronization: The original permissions of the resources to be synchronized are not affected.
Overwrite Synchronization: clears the original permissions of the resource to be synchronized and overwrites the permissions of the resource with the permissions of the current resource.
Scenario 2: Grant the view permission on a data dashboard
In this example, Visitor B is granted the permission to view regional sales data.
On the Centralized Authorization page, select the workspace that you want to manage and select data dashboard resources.
On the Authorization for Collaboration page, select the project that you want to grant permissions to.
The following figure shows how to grant Visitor B the permissions to view the data dashboard by selecting Regional Sales Data.
