Authorizing Access to OLAP Cubes and Cube Data
Overview of Authorizing Access to OLAP Cubes and Cube Data
In SAS Management
Console, the Authorization tabs of cubes
and OLAP schemas display the permissions that apply to those objects.
With appropriate permission, you (the OLAP administrator) can grant
or deny Read or Write permission to users, roles, and groups.
You can also control
access to cube data, so that a single cube provides different data
for different users. You can prevent access to specified dimensions,
hierarchies, and levels, and you can define permission conditions
to filter cube data within dimensions. To set permission conditions
on a cube, use the MDX Expression Builder in SAS Management console,
or open the cube's Authorization tab in SAS
OLAP Cube Studio. For details and procedures, see the “OLAP
Member-Level Permissions” chapter in the SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
Change Permissions and Disable Cubes Using SAS OLAP Cube Studio
In SAS OLAP Cube Studio, you
need Administer permission on both the cube and the client's SAS OLAP
Server in order to change cube permissions and enable and disable
cubes.
