Control Authoring and Folder Permissions

You can control the ability to author reports and analyses by specifying who can create reports and analyses, and who can write to specific folders.

The following scenarios ensure that most users can't access Oracle Analytics to create reports, even if they bookmark a direct link to it.

The examples given here are for Oracle CX Sales and B2B Service customers involved in implementation.

You must have a role with administrator access to complete these tasks.

Topics:

• Remove Analysis Editor and BI Composer Access from the BI Author Role

  Use this task if you want to control who can create reports and analyses, and only want the Reports and Analytics link to appear in the Navigator for a specific role.

• Restrict Access to the Custom Folder in Shared Folders

  Use this task if you only want specific users to be able to write to the Custom folder under Shared folders in the catalog.

• Allow Access to Only My Folder

  Use this task if you want users to be able to save reports to My Folder, but not to any other folders.
