Problem Note 15993: Visual Data Explorer allows saving Reports and Data Explorations outside of BIP Tree and in Users folder

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

The Visual Data Explorer allows saving Report and Data Explorations outside of the BIP tree and within the "Users" folder of the BIP Tree. Instead the Visual Data Explorer should prevent saving these files outside the BIP Tree and should not allow viewing or saving content in other users personal folders. It should allow creation of subfolders beneath the "Users" folder based upon individual user identification where that content should be saved effectively preventing others from access their content.

After applying the fix, you will be allowed to save content in the following locations:

  1. Your personal users folder under BIP Tree\Users\[userid].
  2. Subfolders of the BIP Tree where you have WriteMetadata permission.

You will not be able to save content in the following locations:

  1. Directly in the BIP Tree folder.
  2. In other users personal folders.
  3. Any directory where you do not have WriteMetadata permission.
