[kiranpatil123]

Hi All ,

Need to Implement Section Access in the App . I have a stream with one app and there are around 20 users access to that Stream & App .

In the App i have 2 have managers Level Data ( Mgr1 & Mgr2 ) and their reportees . I need to create Section access With Manager Level Data hierarchy .

Ex - If Mgr2 logins , he shud see this Mgr1 data and their reportees and if Mgr1 logins he shud his reportees data Hierarchy Data . If others users login they shud see full data 

Should i Maintain a sheet with all users who have access to App and thier ID and the Mgr1 & Mgr2 Names and their ID and do the authentication ? and what field shoud i give as it is Hierarchy data 

Please help to write this script . Hierarchy Belongs to function using how to write this

section access;

load

'ADMIN' as ACCESS,

upper(Reportees' as USERID,

upper(mgr1) as MGR

resident yourdata;

load

'ADMIN' as ACCESS,

upper(Reportees' as USERID,

upper(mgr2) as MGR

resident yourdata;

section application;

you need to add INTERVAL\SCHEDULER  as a user for reloadtasks.

There are specials in section access:

fields and values in upper letters, so you have to create a field where the values are linked in upper cases (in your example I called it MGR)

Hi  kiranpatil123,

Your Section Access table should look like :

where  MANAGER_LEVEL is a field in your data model (you can apply a crosstable to your exemple to get the correct form)

NTNAME	ACCESS	MANAGER_LEVEL
Sharad Juneja	USER	Mgr1
Jeff Barnes	USER	Mgr2
UserA	USER	*
UserB	USER	*
UserC	USER	*
YOUR NTNAME	ADMIN	*

You can Maintain this in an Excel, csv file or QVD for more security.

Don't forget to add at last one admin access right.

Regards,

Otmane

In QlikView it was NTNAME, in Qlik Sense it is USERID!

Yes Correct.

[martinpohl]

it must be the values you are using in your datas.

Remember the restrictions of section access:

all values and all fields in upper letters.

Hi , 

I put the below script and got the error . Can you help me on this

Script 

Section Access;
load
Upper('CODE1\'&"Manager Code1") as ID,
Upper(trim(Access)) as ACCESS ,
Upper(trim(Manager)) as MANAGER
//Upper(EMAIL) as EMAIL
FROM Path

Section Application;

Excel

Data contains ID and Access as 'ADMIN' & 'USER' and Manager field as again ID. For ADMIN i have given * .

Please note i have added my ID and as ADMIN and given *  and have also added internal\sa_scheduler in ID and as ADMIN and given * but iam getting below error

ERROR

Access was denied after reload. Check that the user that reloads the script is included in the section access part of the script.

[martinpohl]

are the values in field MANAGER the same as in your data?

are in your data model also exists a field MANAGER with upper values?

Regards

[martinpohl]

maybe load your script without the command section access.

so you can see, if you select a value in field userid, what datas are linked.
