Qüestion about permissions

Is it possible in a single workspace, give permissions in a "report level" for each user?

I mean right now every user I add to a workspace can see every report inside this workspace, is it possible to limit acces to some of those users to some reports?

 

Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous,

this is unfortunately not possible. Depending on your needs you can try the workaround described below:

 

You can use the Publish App to create an App and only incorporate some of the reports/dashboards in the workspace. But there can only be 1 single App per workspace, and you can also only publish it to 1 set of users. Have a look at this question here to see how that works (and let me explain below).

 

If you just have 1 group of users (A), and they are allowed to see Report A, B and not C, then it works.

But when you have more then 1 group (A and B), with different access rights (Group A can see Report A, Group B can see Report B, etc) then this setup will not work.

The solution then would be to create separate workspaces for the groups, and maybe separate the dataset from the reports if necessary as described in the other question linked above.

 

I hope it's clear this way, otherwhise let me know 🙂
