Manage another user's content Pack
- 11 years ago
If you create the content pack from a group space, then any user who is a contributor to the group can delete it.
Designating certain groups for Content Pack / data governance is in our backlog.
Good point, there has to be a super admin user role that can allow for cleanup for cases like this

I agree as you might guess lol. Yeah it is a real problem though, glad it happened to me now as opposed to 6 content packs from now though. I essentially now have a content pack that is stuck, no one can get to it or modify it. I can still connect to it, but it is sort of in limbo, and now if I publish an update, the old one is still going to appear along side of it.
This raises another interesting point/issue. Someone could easily join the organization, publish a content pack, and then leave the organization. No one would be able to ever manage that published content!

That's great to hear meysun, I will look into that going forward, thank you for the info. The oddball situation I have atm is definitely sort of a loop hole/bug, but as is I have no way to delete a content pack that someone in my organization produced. The funny part is that in this situation, I actually created it lol. But yeah it's a bad thing that a login user in the organization could create a content pack, publish it, and then no one but that person can control or manage it.
I do like the idea that a Global Admin in the tenant organization would default to a "content manager" role in BI sort of like in SSRS. But I totally get it that hey maybe it just doesn't do that yet.
