Give a Security Role Access to Data Packs

You can give a security role access to some or all of the data packs that are used in the Exports utility and Integration Manager utility.

When you give export administrator access to a role, the role automatically has access to all data packs and can create data export definitions using all the data packs.

You must give non-export administrator roles access to a data pack before you can give the role access to a data export definition that was create with that data pack. Then the role can export Vantagepoint data to a file with the data export definition. For roles that do not have export administrator access, having access to a data pack does not give them the ability to create new data export definitions using the data pack.

For more information about export administrator tasks and responsibilities, see Role Security for the Exports and Integrations Manager Utilities.

Giving a role access to data packs is one part in the process of giving access to the export functionality. See the following topics for complete instructions on how to give export administrator access to roles or only the ability to export data:

To give a role access to some or all of the data packs:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Settings > Security > Roles.
  2. On the Roles form, select a role.
  3. On the Access Rights tab, set the Functional Area option to Data Packs.
  4. To give the role access to all data packs, select the Full Access to All Data Packs check box.
    All the data packs display in the Data Packs for this Role grid.

    If this role has already been given export administrator access, the Full Access to All Data Packs check box is automatically selected and cannot be cleared. You give a role export administrator access by selecting Data Export Definitions in the Functional Area field of the Access tab, and then selecting the Export Administrator check box on the tab.

  5. To give a non-export administrator role access to only certain data packs, complete the following:
    1. Be sure that the Full Access to All Data Packs check box is cleared.
    2. Below the Data Packs for this Role grid, click + Add/Remove.
    3. On the Data Packs dialog box, select the category of the data packs to which you want to give access.
    4. In the Available Data Packs list, click each data pack that you want the role to access.
      The data packs that you selected are automatically added to the Selected Data Packs list on the dialog box.
    5. Click Save on the dialog box.
      You are returned to the Access Rights tab of the Roles form. The data packs that you selected display in the Data Packs for this Role grid.

      Now you can give the non-export administrator role access to a data export definition that was created with the data packs that you just gave the role access to.
