Title: Page Security in Cognos Report Studio
Post by: Raghuvir on 29 May 2014 04:22:14 AM
hi all,

is the any way we can apply security to report pages on the basis of user log on, suppose we have 2 users, A and B and a report with Page 1 and Page 2.

when user A logs in, he will only be able to view Page1, not page 2, vice versa for user B.

Can anyone guide me if this can be achieved and how.

Regards

Raghu,

Is it based on user groups?

No, but just a thot.

If it is at group level pl check if that can be achieved using CSVIdentityNameList function in conjunction with rendering technique.

If at user level using #sq($account.defaultName)# with page rendering option
