User / group Permissions Views Write and Config

Hi All.

I am trying to find in the online help, What the difference between the Write and the Config tickboxes are under the Permissions – Views.

All of the user and group setup information is around the Rights of the system under Dataminer Administrator Security.

Also, Is there a way to create your own Default User permissions as a Template other than the generic (No Rights, Operator, Power User, Admin no user changes and Admin)?

Hi Nathan,

Please refer here : Configuring a user group | DataMiner Docs.

As far as I am aware, you cannot create your own template of user permissions. You can only use the presets available there.

Hi Nathan,

For your first question, please find below a summary:

  • Write: Gives the users in the group parameter write access to the view, element or service. They will be able to change parameter values
  • Config: Allows the users in the group to edit views, elements and services

Regarding your second question, I remember a similar question:

Dataminer User Group ‘RIGHTS’ permissions

Currently this is not possible.

In the meantime, I found this information in DataMiner Docs:
https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Advanced_Functionality/Security/Basic_security_configuration/Managing_user_groups/Configuring_a_user_group.html
(See point 6)
