Why Is the Administrator Application Role Important?

You need the BI Service Administrator application role to access administrative options in the Console.

There must always be at least one person in your organization with the BI Service Administrator application role. This ensures there is always someone who can delegate permissions to others. If you remove yourself from the BI Service Administrator role you’ll see a warning message.

If no-one has administrative access to Oracle Analytics Cloud, ask your identity domain administrator to add a user to the ServiceAdministrator IDCS application role. ServiceAdministrator is assigned through the identity management system and is always assigned to the BI Service Administrator application role in a regular Oracle Analytics Cloud service instance.
