Test the Configuration by Adding a Database Group to an Application Role

You can test the configuration by adding a database group to an application role.

You can also manage users, groups and application roles using the Console, Users and Roles option. See Access the Console in Oracle Analytics Server.
  1. Log in to Fusion Middleware Control, and open WebLogic domain and bifoundation_domain in the navigation menu on the left of the page.
  2. Right-click bifoundation_domain and select Security, then Application Roles to display the Application Role Configuration page.
  3. Add a database group which contains an LDAP user to one of the application roles, for example, BIServiceAdministrator, which that user does not currently have access to.
  4. Log in to Oracle Analytics Server as a user that is a member of the group that was newly added to the application role.

    In the top right of the page, you will see the text Logged in as <user id>.

  5. Click the user id to display a drop down menu.
  6. Select My Account from the menu.
  7. Display the Roles and Catalog Groups tab and verify the user now has the new application role.
