Share Terracotta DB connections

You can share Terracotta DB connections with particular users and user groups so that these have access to the Terracotta DB dataset.

Regardless of the share, users with administration privilege can access all Terracotta DB aliases.

Procedure

1. Click Admin Console in the user menu of the program bar.

2. Click Server to expand this section of the Administration menu.

3. Click Terracotta DB.

4. Click the

Edit URL alias permissions icon of the Terracotta DB connection you want to share.

5. Enter a term in the search field and click Search. Clicking on Search without any input values fetches all users and groups.

6. Click Show MashZone NextGen default groups to show only default MashZone NextGen users or user group in the Search results field.

7. Drag an user or user group from the Search result field and drop it into the Principals with permissions field.

Note: By default, the owner of the Terracotta DB connection is already present in the Principals with permissions list. This owner is non editable and cannot be removed from the list.

8. Activate or deactivate the Display or Usage privileges of a user or user group.

A user or user group with Display privilege can see the relevant source data in the data feed or dashboard. A user or user group with the Usage privilege has access to the relevant alias in the data source operator.

9. Click Ok.

Your changes are applied.
