Global access permissions

Global access permissions determine which data modeling tasks can be performed.

These global access permissions exist:

  • View OLAP: Connecting to the OLAP database is not possible without this permission.
  • Edit OLAP: Reserved for future use.
  • Import/Export Values: This permission is also required for writing data with Application Engine processes. To import values, the View OLAP and Write Values permissions must also be granted. To export values, the View OLAP permission must also be granted.
  • Edit Dimensions: To edit OLAP dimensions, the View OLAP permission must also be granted.
  • Edit Rules: To edit OLAP rules, the View OLAP permission must also be granted.
  • Write Values: To write values, the View OLAP permission must also be granted.
  • Administer OLAP database: Combines all other global access permissions except View OLAP. OLAP performs no permission checks for users with this permission.
