25 Working with Access Permissions

Access permissions enable Service Administrators to assign permissions to users and groups for specific application artifacts.

Service Administrators can configure Read, Write, or None access permissions on these application artifacts:

  • Dimensions, including user-defined dimensions. See Enabling or Disabling Security for Dimensions

  • Forms

  • Dashboards

  • Infolets

  • Reports, Books, and Bursting Definitions

  • Form folders

  • Dashboard folders

  • Infolet folders

  • Reports and Documents folders

You can specify access permission for individual users and each group. When you assign a user to a group, that user acquires the group's access permissions. If an individual's access permissions conflict with those of a group the user belongs to, user access permissions take precedence.
