User Role

If your user role in Essbase is User with no application permissions, you can use the Files catalog (specifically, the shared, users, and gallery folders), download desktop tools from the Console, and explore the Academy to learn more about Essbase.

You must be granted additional access to applications by Power Users or Service Administrators. Applications are structures that contain one or more cubes, also known as databases. You can see only applications and cubes for which you have been granted application permissions.

You can have a unique application permission for each application on the server. Application permissions, from least privileged to highest, are:

• None (no application permission has been granted)
• Database Access
• Database Update
• Database Manager
• Application Manager
