Problem with applying application roles to AD users in OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.7.140527)
Hello!
We have Active Directory integration in our OBIEE 11g environment.
We created several groups in AD and then set up same Application roles in EM.
After that we added specific access (privileges) to Catalog objects based on those roles.
But when I try to check end users access to certain objects i don't see any changes. And Users don't have access.
Can i solve the problem by entering the web-interface directly on client machine and click update metadata button?
Is it correct?

Hi, You may have missed the Role-> Groups association step that needs to be done in Enterprise Manager.
Here is a reference for 11g https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e10543/authentication.htm#BIESC692

I've done this step.
Some Roles working. But when I try to add new group I don't see chenges until I manually click Update Metadata button on client machine from my admin account.

If you are talking about
Administration-> Reload Files and Metadata
this should be a centralised operation, so no matter in what machine you execute it should work.
I would suggest to logout/login again with a certain user to see latest changes in security

In my case it does not work. May be browser cashe?
We use IE 11.
Only Administration-> Reload Files and Metadata on client machine solves the problem.
It's strange behavior.

Did you try deleting the browser cache? same behaviour?

Could check the security going "OFFLINE" Mode ( runcat.cmd or runcat.sh), check if you see the change the permissions between your objects and Application Roles, and let us about it. And also check the link that @FTisiot provides you https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e10543/authentication.htm#BIESC5978
