Assigning User Groups to the Adapter Area

Assign one or more user groups to your Adapter Area.

Users in user groups assigned to the Adapter Area can see and select the new adapter type when they create a new Load Set, Data Mart, Program, or Business Area. If you have not already created user groups, see the Oracle LSH System Administrator's Guide for more information.

Note:

The users in user groups assigned to Adapter Areas should have roles that include ONLY View privileges. Giving users Modify privileges on the objects in the Adapter Area could result in the Adapter's becoming invalid and no longer working.

For example, if a user modifies a predefined Parameter in a Load Set or Data Mart, the system automatically creates a new version of the Parameter definition in the Adapter Area, creating a new version of the Adapter Area itself, and the adapter becomes invalid.

You can assign user groups to Adapters in the user interface or by running an API.
