Appendix : Administration : Getting Started with the MashZone NextGen Server : Use the Default MashZone NextGen User Repository : Grant dashboard and data feed permissions via API console : Enable dashboard and data feed creation
Enable dashboard and data feed creation
The creation of dashboards and data feeds is restricted in MashZone NextGen by default. You can enable a user to create dashboards and data feeds by assigning the user to the Presto_Developer group.
If an existing MashZone NextGen repository is used (e.g., after a migration to a newer MashZone NextGen version) the permissions might be missing in the Presto_Developer group. You can add the required permissions to the repository.
Procedure
1. Open the PolicyEngineConfiguration.xml file located in the following directory using a text editor.
<MashZone NextGen installation>\apache-tomcat\webapps\mashzone\WEB-INF\classes\
2. Add the following code block to the Presto_Developer_PermissionSet and save the file.
<Permission resourceName="Mashzone" resourceType="type.entity.uiObject">
<Action name="accessDashboardEditor"/>
<Action name="accessFeedEditor"/>
</Permission>
3. Open the API Console.
4. Enter the following code block.
{
"sid": "PolicyService",
"oid": "reloadPermissionSets",
"version": "1.1",
"params": {}
}
5. Click Run.
The permissions are added to the MashZone NextGen repository.
