Create and edit a data visualization

In Oracle Clinical One Analytics, you can visualize clinical data from a study in Oracle Clinical One Platform and add your visualizations into a workbook that can be shared with analysts and statisticians on your study team.

Now that you have prepared your data, it is time you build a visualization.

To perform this task you need authoring access, which is controlled by global roles and permissions assigned in Oracle Clinical One Platform. These permissions provide you the access you need and allow you to use specific datasets when building visualizations using the Data Visualizer interface in Oracle Clinical One Analytics. For more information about permissions and datasets, see About your access to Oracle Clinical One Analytics.
