Add Security Configurations
Add security configurations to secure the subject areas and data with ready-to-use and custom duty and data type of application roles.
Configure Data Security
Provide access to data using the custom-created data type application roles.
You can add data filters to the data retrieved from the logical or presentation objects based on the data roles assigned to a user. You can add one step for each data role. The elements that you can secure are from the Main branch. Hence, if you need a newly added object to be secured, then you must ensure that the branch containing the newly added object is merged with the Main branch before configuring the security. If any of the custom-created role is no longer available, then the security configuration for that role is removed from the "Configure Data Security" step.
Configure Object Permissions
Configure the permissions for objects such as subject areas and its elements with the ready-to-use or the custom-created duty roles.
You secure the subject areas and their elements through "Configure Object Permissions", a ready-to-use single step. You edit this single step to specify the subject areas, their elements, and the duty roles to secure these with. The elements that you can secure are from the Main branch. Hence, if you need a newly added object to be secured, then you must ensure that the branch containing the newly added object is merged with the Main branch before configuring the security. If any of the custom-created role is no longer available, then the security configuration for that role is automatically updated in the existing "Configure Object Permissions".
For the front-end objects such as KPIs and decks, set the permissions individually for each object by adding the applicable duty role and the corresponding access. See Inspect a KPI and Inspect a Deck.
