Scenarios

You can isolate datasource connections allocated to different users by setting permissions to ensure data query performance.
The administrator and datasource connection owner have all permissions, which cannot be set or modified by other users.

On the Datasource Authentication tab page, click Manage Permissions in the Operation column of the row that contains the authentication to be modified. On the User Permission Info page that is displayed, you can grant, set, and revoke permissions of the datasource connection.

Setting Permissions

Click Set Permission in the Operation column of the sub-user to modify the permission of the user. Table 1 lists the detailed permission descriptions.

If all options under Set Permission are gray, you are not allowed to change permissions on this datasource connection. You can apply for the granting and revoking permissions from administrators, group owners, and other users who have the permission to grant permissions.

Revoking Permissions

Click Revoke Permission in the Operation column of a sub-user to revoke the user's permissions. After this operation, the sub-user does not have any permission of the datasource connection.
