Dashboard Accessibility Scenarios in Bold BI Server
Overview
In Bold BI Server, dashboard accessibility is determined by the permissions set for individual users, groups, and the dashboard’s visibility settings. This article outlines the different scenarios in which dashboards will be accessible to users.
FAQ: Dashboard Accessibility
Q: How is dashboard access determined for individual users?
A: Dashboard access for individual users is based on the permissions assigned directly to their user account. When a user is granted specific permissions for a dashboard, they will be able to access it accordingly.
Q: What determines dashboard access for groups?
A: When permissions are assigned to a group, all members of that group inherit access to the dashboards associated with those permissions. This allows for efficient management of dashboard access for multiple users who share common roles or functions within an organization.
Q: Are there dashboards that are accessible without logging in?
A: Yes, public dashboards can be accessed by anyone who has the link to the dashboard. These dashboards are set to public access and do not require the user to be logged in or to have a registered account on Bold BI Server.
Q: What is the difference between public and private dashboards?
A: Public dashboards are available to anonymous users and do not require any form of authentication. Private dashboards, on the other hand, are only accessible to registered users in Bold BI who have been granted the appropriate permissions.
