Properties of connections: Access rights

On the Access rights tab, which is present when you have selected a new or existing connection for a data source in an application in the Application browser, you can restrict access to the use of connect entities in this data source, dependent on the user (login name in Windows) and its assigned role.

Access

Here you may define which Roles have which Access rights to using this connection. You can indicate for each role whether no access (None), Read access, Write access or Full access must apply, although only None and Full actually make sense here. Access rights for a role associated with a connect entity in the application setup can never supersede access rights for the same role associated with a dataset or database in the database setup. If a role is not linked to this connect entity, then each user linked to that role has full access by default. If no role is linked to the connect entity, every user linked to a role has full access. A user without a role always has full access. Users are assigned to roles in the application setup.
