Navigation#

To customize the Navigation Panel for other users, the super Admin can:

  • Drag to rearrange the navigation menus by selecting the drag and order ( ) icon.
  • Rename the navigation labels by selecting the edit ( ) icon.
  • Enable/disable the navigation menus with the ON/OFF toggle.

The navigation menu for all users will appear in the order and with the names as set by an admin in this section.

Security - Password Strength Validator#

Admin can set the native user password strength validator under Settings > General > Security section. The values can be set to "Low/Medium/High" (Tooltip in the app provides the details of the security settings).

Any new user created must adhere to the password validation rules to set the new password string.

Sync reports Permissions and dependencies

note

An upgrade from BI Hub version 2.7.0 to 2.7.1 requires you to refresh (turn OFF and then back ON) the Sync Reports toggle. This is needed for the Elasticsearch index to be rebuilt.

Search#

By default the Search section allows users to search and request the reports they do not have access to.

To hide listing the inaccessible reports, turn OFF the Show Inaccessible reports toggle here.

When users search for the reports, the Inaccessible reports would be visible or hidden based on the selection made by the Admin.
