How to allow users to access object properties in access point?

[nehasaxena]

Hello All,

I have gone through so many posts on the community but unable to find any answer for this question. Is it possible for users to access the properties of existing sheet objects in web?

I have checked the box in security settings but not working

Any suggestions will be really helpful for me.

Thanks,

Regards

Enable ->apply All Sheets(check box)

or

Settings->Document Properties->Security

Once check the options.

Or

Or else because of section access might be the properties are disabled.

Note that all sheets and objects that were defined by the developer in the original QVW document cannot be modified by anyone in the AccessPoint. Even if you succeed in making available a Properties... dialog in the AccessPoint, all properties will be grayed out.

If that is the problem you are facing, then there is no way around it. However, if you just make a copy of the object for which you want to check the properties, the properties of that new object can be inspected and modified in the AP since you created it yourself.

Settings->Document Properties->Security->Admin OverrideSecurity

That helps if you have opened the document as an ADMIN. When you open the document on the portal, you are always and only in USER mode, regardless of the section access rules.

Hi Peter,

I am getting another issue - I am unable to copy the object if it exists in container. Copy option is enable but paste is disable. I can copy the container but not any object

Am I missing anything in the properties?

Many thanks in advance!

If you managed to really select the contained object no, not to my knowledge. Even in QV Desktop, objects in containers have always been difficult to copy, and when you paste them they often maximize without any reason. Maybe this is just a bug.

But I'll first try it myself.

Hello Jonathan, i tried reply on this post with a question:

https://community.qlik.com/thread/54342

It is about loading excel, but in my case by each row, and everytime it loops i want it to also check if that row exists in the qvd ,

[Peter_Cammaert]

It works for me. I  am able to make a copy of a bar chart embedded in a container, and paste it on a sheet for which I have permission to make modifications (or on a new sheet I created in the AP).

Something else must be blocking you from doing the same. Did you check the sheet permissions? Or can you create a new sheet and try again on that one?

Best,

Peter
