Hi guys,

after my last incident (described in the following thread) I can not access the BI Publisher Administration page using the weblogic admin user anymore:

I am pretty sure there used to be one more section to access the following page:

Can someone tell me how I enable the weblogic user to this page using Oracle Enterprise Manager?

Best regards and thanks in advance

    One more update:

    When using the direct link (https://xxx.com/analytics/saw.dll?bipublisherEntry&Done=%2fanalytics%2fsaw.dll%3fAdmin&Action=admin) to the section I receive the information that my weblogic admin user does not have the propper rights:

    Hello There,

    Make sure in your Application Policies for Administrator Application Roles(BIAdministrator or BIServiceAdministrator or your custom Admin Role) of which Weblogic user is part of has below Admin Policy assigned related to BI Publisher Administration Page.

    oracle.bi.publisher.administerServer (Enables the Administration link to access the Administration page and grants permission to set any of the system settings.)

    You can refer to below document for Application Roles and Policies access in OBIEE 12c

    Thanks and Regards,

    Thanks for the advice. Now it seems to work eventhough I was pretty sure I enabled this policy in the past.

    Now I will check if I can figure out how to enable my weblogic user for connect via BI Administration tool, since it shows the error that the user has unsufficient permission level:

    Make sure that your Administrative Role is having all the Admin Privileges assigned and your Administrative user is part of Administrative Role.

    FYI, Permission for Repository access is

    oracle.bi.server.manageRepositories (Grants permission to open, view, and edit repository files using the Administration Tool or the Oracle BI Metadata Web Service.)

    Below is the document talking about default permissions in below link under section "B.4.1 Default Policy Store Provider" under "Table B-2 Default Permissions":
