A Appendix: Roles and Permission Grants

Application roles control access to metadata objects, such as subject areas, tables, and columns. For example, certain Retail Insights Cloud Service Suite roles may not have access to view certain presentation tables. Metadata object security is configured in the Oracle BI Repository, using the Oracle BI Administration Tool. The Everyone user group is denied access to some of the presentation tables and only related roles have explicit read access. This access can be extended to subject areas and columns.

Note: By default in Oracle BI, only Retail Insights Cloud Service Suite permissions at the presentation tables and dashboard level have been configured.

Roles and Permission Grants

The following table shows the dashboards that are accessible for the specific roles assigned to a user. A user can have more than one role assigned to them; the role permissions are additive.
