Hi,

What's the significance of being an owner of a catalog object (analysis, dashboard, folder, etc)?   Anyone with the proper permissions can still open, edit, or delete the object.  So what privileges does an owner have over other users who have the right permissions?

    The owner can then reassign permissions of the object to others.

    But a user with admin rights can also do that.  right?

    Correct but in a scenario where you'd want a non admin user to maintain access to a folder, an option would be to set them up as owner of the folder. You'd need to be careful though as the owner can delete objects by default including the folder itself.

    Thank you Joel for your insights.
