Security on Alias Set

[kenship]

Hi,

I wonder if I have a way to restrict and allow certain user group to see specific alias set only for dimension element.

I did some research and don't find a way but would like to confirm from other user.

Thanks.

Hi

What about element security on the element attributes dimension ?

[kenship]

I read from other post that element attribute can't be assigned with security.

I will follow your suggestion and see.

Thanks! You're as helpful as you've always been.

I'm afraid you cannot hide aliases using element security, but this thread might give you some other ideas to explore.

[kenship]

I read this thread already.

And I tried working with security on }ElementAttributes.

Unfortunately it doesn't give me what I want.

Anyway, thanks.

Apologies, I did not answer the question and you can disregard my reply.

Please do not worry about it at all.

Have you considered my suggestion from the linked thread to have the attribute values rule-derived, using the TM1USER function as a dynamic variable helping you to decide who should see what?

Edit: here's a rule sample to demonstrate what I mean.

Code: Select all

[}ElementAttributes_MyDim:'My Alias'] = S:

	IF( DB( '}ClientGroups', TM1USER(), 'MY_ALIAS_SECURITY_GROUP' ) @= 'MY_ALIAS_SECURITY_GROUP',

		DB( 'My_Alias_Helper_Cube', !MyDim, 'My Alias' ),

		''
	);

I haven't tried but will certainly take a look.

Thanks!
