Report Details: Setting Permissions

The Permissions tab on the Report Details window allow you to specify which members of the enterprise can Read(view) or Write(edit) a report. If any user(s) is listed on the tab, only that user(s) has permissions to the report.

Default Permissions

If no user is listed explicitly on the Permissions tab, the report has default permissions.

By default, report owners have full permissions on their own reports. This cannot be changed.
Other report writers and users may have permissions, depending on whether a report is public or private.

For more information on default permissions, see Report Details: Report Permissions.

Important: When you set explicit permissions for specific users, only those users have access to the report, and only at the level you specify. No other users can view or edit the report. For information on resetting report permissions, see Report Details: Resetting Permissions.

To Set explicit Report Permissions:

Open the Permissions tab of the Report Details.
Click the Browse Member Directory button.
From the members list select the users you want to specify permissions for.
Click Save & Close.
The specified users are added to the Permissions page
Select the level of permissions each user should have.
Permissions are:
Read—Allowed to view the report.
If a user is given Read permission but has an enterprise role that does not give them access to the Reports tab, they can still view the report in a Dashboard if their enterprise role gives them the Report Viewer permission.
Write—Allowed to edit the report.
This permission gives a user the ability to edit a report. It does not give the user access to report authoring tools. For this they need a Report Author license. See About Report Licensing Options.
Note: If a user is given Write permission, they are also given Read permission.
