We have set 'NavTreeDisplayServerView=N' , this will hide system view tree from TM1Web for all users.

But we only want to hide the view tree to ordinary users, and hope it shown to nominated users, like 'admin' ? How can we do it?

Although I can't find this in the documentation anywhere[1] {Commence vigorous rolling of eyes }, go to the }ClientSettings cube and set the Web Hide NavTree value to True for users that you don't want to have access. I'd recommend creating a TI process as part of a periodic housekeeping chore to set that value for all clients who are not members of an Admin group.

[1] Unbelievably I can't even find a reference to it in a web search either except for one place; the search results show a reference to the McGraw Hill book IBM Cognos TM1 The Official Guide. I searched my Kindle edition of that and yes, it's there. I imagine that once this thread is indexed it'll show up in the search results as well but it's unbelievable that IBM didn't think to document it either in the actual documentation or on one of their web pages. Mind you, the way their web sites are laid out maybe it's in there but the Google indexing bot got lost, couldn't find its way out and starved to death before it could find it.

Edit: I can't even find a reference to the }ClientSettings cube itself in the documentation. {Gestures with hands, mouths "WTF??" at the monitor...}
