Dashboards play a crucial role in decision-making and performance tracking. To enhance user experience and security, the platform offers advanced custom permissions for dashboards, providing more control over who can view, edit, and manage dashboards. This feature allows users to tailor their dashboard experience by setting permissions according to their preferences, whether for privacy or collaborative sharing.
Choose from four distinct levels of permissions:
FULL: Grants the ability to create, edit, share, and delete dashboards.
EDIT: Allows editing of a dashboard and its widgets, without the ability to delete it.
VIEW: Provides read-only access to a dashboard.
NO ACCESS: Restricts access to the dashboard entirely.
Customize Permissions While Creating a New Dashboard: During the Dashboard creation process, set the desired permissions for your new dashboard.
Toggle the Private Dashboard Option: If you need a private dashboard, toggle the private option.
Click the three dots at the top right corner of the dashboard and select "Manage Permissions" to update permissions.
Toggle the "Private Dashboard" option if needed and select the desired permission level for each user.
Click "Save" to apply the updated permissions.
Here is an overview of how various actions on dashboards are managed based on different permission levels.
Customized Permissions for Better Privacy and Collaboration: Tailor permissions to suit your needs, ensuring appropriate access levels.
Enhanced Security: Ensure that only the right people have access to sensitive data.
Streamlined Workflow: Grant appropriate access levels to team members to improve collaboration and efficiency.
With these enhancements, you can now customize your dashboard permissions more effectively, ensuring better privacy, security, and collaboration within your team.
