Title: Can you prevent users from editing a dashboard
Post by: prikala on 23 Jan 2018 06:03:52 AM
I am almost certain this is not possible but I will ask anyway to be sure:
Can you build a dashboard so that users (who have dashboard capability) can make selections using whatever is at the dashboard BUT they can not edit the dashboard, add more data etc (or make a private copy of it)?

Hi

We did face this problem where in users with even read/execute access to dashboard capability are able to edit. The only way we could restrict is by role customization. We hid the edit button to prevent modifications.

Hope that helps.

Thanks
