Managing access for process apps

Note: To manage permissions for individual process apps, you must have Manage access permission for the particular process apps. When you have created a process app, you will automatically be granted Manage access permissions for the app.

Introduction

In Process Mining you can grant access to process apps for users and groups. Based on the permissions, users who are granted access can edit, view, or delete process apps, or manage access for process apps.

Note: By default, users who belong to a group inherit the access permissions as defined for the group. When editing the permissions for the user, you cannot lower the permissions for the user.

Below is an overview of the different permissions that can be set for users or groups.

Permission

Description

Manage access

The user, or users in the group, can manage access for the app.

Edit data

The user, or users in the group can upload data for development and production. Furthermore, they can perform all available actions in Data transformations, such as add and remove tables, edit transformations, edit the data model, and start data runs.

Note:

Users with Edit data permission also have Edit dashboards and View permissions.

Edit dashboards

The user, or users in the group, can edit the app settings, edit the dashboards, and publish the app.

Note:

Users with only Edit dashboard permission cannot upload data in their apps, unless they explicitly get the Edit data permission.

View

The user, or users in the group, can view the app.

Delete

The user, or users in the group, can delete the app.

Note: Edit permission includes View permission. When you assign Edit permission to a user or a group of users, the View permission is selected automatically for these user or users. Similarly, when you remove the View permission, the Edit permission is removed automatically.
