Hi All,

Can we hide the subject area while creating any new analysis in OTBI which are not relevant or client has not bought the license for that module ?

Similarly , can we hide the catalog folder too which are not needed .

Regards

Ankur

    Hi @gclampitt ,

    I tried to use manage privilege option but it is not hiding from search list. if we click on that subject area then it shows you don't have access. Our requirement is to completely remove from this search list as shown in screenshot.

    Any suggestions on this?

    Regards

    hi you need to go to Admin> Manage priviledges - if you dont have this option, you need to get the BI admin role.

    Once there. just set the permissions as required….

    If you want to hide a SA area for everyone, say because you don't use that Module, just change the permissions to denied

    Hi @gclampitt ,

    this is exactly I have done but when we create the analysis then we first search subject area and there only I am still able to see the subject area. Although, when we click on subject area then it says you don't have permission to access the subject area as shown in following screenshot:

    Requirement is to don't show subject area in the search list itself

    I can only see what has been granted

    Hi @gclampitt ,

    If I have BI administrator access, will I have still access to see these subject areas as I have denied the access for BI author role but BI administrator role was also not there so I thought it should not be visible with admin too.
