Manage Privileges
About Security in Metrics and Scorecards
In Predix Essentials, you can manage privileges for specific:
- Members of the MI Metrics Administrator Security Group can manage the privileges for individual KPIs and Scorecards. Other users can manage privileges only for the KPIs and Scorecards that they created and for which they have been granted update privileges.
- If a Security User is assigned to multiple Security Groups, the user is granted the privileges of the Security Group with the most permissions. For example, if a Security User is assigned to both, the MI Metrics Viewer and the MI Metrics Admin Security Groups, the user is granted view, create, update and delete privileges.
About KPI Privileges
The KPI privileges that you set up in the Predix Essentials are applied in addition to family-level permissions defined for the KPI families.
By default, all the MI Metrics User are given the View, Insert, Update, and Delete permissions to the KPI family.
You can also manage privileges at entity-level by selecting the users and groups that should have access to a given KPI. Via the Schedule, Alerts, and Privileges section, you can grant or revoke the privileges for the users and the groups.
The Super Users and members of the MI Metrics Administrator Security Group can, by default, manage privileges for all KPIs. Other users can manage the privileges for a KPI that they create, unless those privileges are revoked by an administrative user. Non-administrative users can also manage privileges for KPIs to which they have been granted Update privilege.
About Scorecard Privileges
