Assigning Permissions on Usage Link Groups

After creating the data usage link groups, the next most important step is to give permissions to users to access the data usage link group. All users (that includes administrators, authors, and agents) who need to use the data usage link groups must be given the Execute permission on the link. The user who creates the data usage link group does not get the execute and delete permissions automatically.

To assign permissions:
  1. From the Navigation menu, browse to Data Adapters > Link Groups.

  2. On the List page, select the usage link group on which you want to give permissions.

  3. On the Properties page, on the Permissions tab, assign the following permissions to users and user groups:

    • Own

    • View

    • Edit

    • Delete

    • Execute: The users with execute permissions are the only ones who can use the usage link groups. You must give this permission to all the users who should have access to the usage link groups.

  4. Click the Save button.
