Add Data Sources to Roles

To view a report generated from a particular data source, a report consumer's role must be granted access to the data source.

Similarly, to create a data model based on a particular data source, the report author's role must be granted access to the data source.

  1. On the Administration tab, under Security Configuration, click Roles and Permissions.
  2. Find the role to which you want to add data sources and click Add Data Sources. The Add Data Sources page is displayed.
  3. Locate the appropriate data sources in the Available Data Sources list and use the shuttle buttons to move the sources to the Allowed Data Sources list for the role.
  4. Click Apply.
  5. Repeat for all roles that need access to report data sources.
