Set Up a User

Administrators must set up new users in Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) and assign them to the one or more Analytics Visualization roles that provide access rights to the available data sets and data visualization workbooks.

The steps for adding new users are described in the Cloud Services Administration Guide in Setting Up a User with Access to Analytics Publisher and Analytics Visualization. Use the information on this page to know what role types and data access permissions are available.

Role Types

Analytics Visualization includes two role types that control what data sets and data visualization workbooks a user can view or edit.

Role Type Description and Privileges
XContentCreator

  • View the data sets that the role has access to and create new workbooks from those data sets
  • View and open the sample workbooks available in
    Shared Folders/Base DV Workbooks/X
  • Save a sample workbook to a different folder so it can be customized

    WARNING:

    Do not save your custom workbooks to the folder
    Shared Folders/Base DV Workbooks/X
    where sample workbooks are placed by Oracle Utilities. If you do, your custom workbooks will be overwritten during an upgrade.
  • Create new data sets by using the available connection to the software-as-a-service enterprise application database (such as Customer Cloud Service, Meter Solution Cloud Service, or Work and Asset Cloud Service)
  • Create new custom folders in My Folders and Shared Folders
