Hi,

When setting up Capabilities, such as who has access to Query Studio or Report Studio... I will want to grant the user/group "execute" and "traverse" permissions on the Query Studio or Report Studio Capability. However, what about the "read" permission? How does "read" come into play when talking about the Capabilities? Thanks!

Hi,
Read permission is where a user can view a report.
traverse permission is where a user can navigate between folders and reps etc.
In capabilities, there is html items, A user was not able to view the rep on executing bcoz Html items were used and no permission was set for HTML item to view for users.
