Couldn't Load the data for this visual error

Hi,

 

I am having a issue when sharing a dashboard with other users. They are able to see the dasboard but not the data in the visual and they get the 'Couldn't Load the data for this visual' error. In my case the data source for my dataset A  (see picture) comes from two API streaming dataset C and D (see picture). If I share the dasboard via link the other Pro users are only able to see the dashboard but not the contend inside the visuals. They are only able to see the data if I make them admin of the workspace. Any ideas? 

 

Thanks

D

    Hi DAGS 

    Check to see if these users have permissions to the datasets in both dataflows, if they don't, they may not be able to view the content, and if they don't, give them permissions.

    And you can refer to the following link.

      Hi Anonymous 

       

      Yes, that does the trick, but I am wondering why I have to do that? If dataset C and D were just excel files, I wouldn't have to do that, but for an API streaming dataset, I have to? Thanks.

       

      Kind Regards,
