Add Members to Application Roles

Application roles determine what users are allowed to see and do in Oracle Analytics Cloud. It’s the administrator’s job to assign appropriate application roles to all users and to manage the privileges of each application role.

Remember:

• Members (users, groups, and other application roles) get the permissions granted to an application role.
• Application roles can get permissions granted to other application roles. For example, DV Content Author gets the permissions granted to BI Content Author, DV Consumer, and BI Consumer.

You use the Roles and Permissions page in the Console to assign members to an application role.

1. Click Console.
2. Click Roles and Permissions.
3. Click Application Roles.
   All the predefined application roles are displayed, together with any user-defined application roles that you've added.
4. Select the name of an application role for more detail, and to see its current members.
5. Under Members, click Users, Groups, or Application Roles to view the current, direct members in each category.
   For example, if you click Users you see a list of users directly assigned to the application role.

8. To remove a member from the application role, click the Delete icon next to the member's name.
