This shows that Analyzer users cannot edit or create custom objects. Are they able to view them?

Hello @jrromito

Anything created by a user with a Professional license as a server object / shared object cannot be shared with a user who has an Analyzer license, as the Analyzer user cannot access the Repository. That is regardless of the object being a standard pie chart or a custom object.

Any objects on the actual .qvw itself is visible to Analyzer users. So if a .qvw was developed with a custom object and then uploaded as such, all users see this object.

Hi @Sonja_Bauernfeind just a quick question from one of our customers - using the analyzer user in a QV environment does not restrict to just one document, correct?

Hello @Angela_Wolter

Analyzer licenses are not tied to a specific document, no. This would be a Document CAL from the legacy license method.

All the bets,
Sonja
