Hi ,

If i understand your question correctly ,you want restrict to accessing Custom BIP folder by end user.

You can do .Please follow the below option.

1. Go to respective folder under Catalog.
2. Click on the permission under Task option.
3. Under Permission go to the respective role and select as 'No Access' .
4. Please try and let me know for any issue.

if you put no access on the bi consumer, the employees will not be able to open the reports inside the custom folder.

We need a way to restrict access to the catalog for end users. They must not traverse the catalog. they only need to open the reports for which they have the url, usually embedded somewhere in the application

@ALOK SH-Oracle any update on this?

Restricting the catalog access in <podname>/analytics does not prevents the users to access and navigate the catalog in <podname>/xmlpserver

ALOK SH-Oracle

Can you please try with Traverse option .

We absolutely need it!

@ALOK SH-Oracle

as a workaround we can probably manage the security in that way. the problem is that we want to completely disable the catalog navigation to our end users, both the xmlpserver and the analytics server
