This article describes the implications of basic rights that are specific to Jedox Integrator. The basic rights are described in detail the article Administration of User Rights.
Jedox Integrator is tightly connected with the Jedox OLAP Server, which is uses for storing the Integrator projects. This allows the definition of user rights at the project level. It also implies that administration of rights in the Jedox OLAP Server has direct influence on the behavior of Jedox Integrator. The user rights in Jedox Integrator are set on the server level and are therefore independent from the user's front end (e.g. Jedox Web Integrator, Scheduler, Command Line Client, SOAP WebService API)

Specific rights for Jedox Integrator projects
It is possible to define rights at the project level for Integrator (ETL). With the appropriate authorization, they can be assigned or changed for projects in the Integrator Manager with a right-click (see section "Required access rights for controlling Jedox Web objects" in article Rights with Impact on Jedox Web).
The following settings are available:
|
D (Delete)
|
Users have full access to the project. They are allowed to edit and delete the project and its components. Furthermore, they can execute and monitor loads or jobs and perform a data preview. |
|
W (Write) |
Users are allowed to edit the project and its components. Furthermore, they can execute and monitor loads or jobs and perform a data preview. |
|

|
N (None) |
Users have no access to the project. It is not displayed in the Integrator. |
Note that rights on project components (e.g. extracts) are not supported. Furthermore, as there are no project groups available, there is no inheritance of user rights.
In order to create Jedox Integrator Tasks, additional authorization for Scheduler is required (rights object ste_scheduler).
Display of Integrator in Jedox Web
In Jedox Web, users can only see the Integrator component if they have at least the "R" rights for the rights object "ste_etl". They can edit the project and create new projects if they have at least the right "W".
Even without rights on "ste_etl", the execution of jobs and monitoring is possible from other Integrator clients, e.g. Integrator Command Line Client or Jedox Web Spreadsheets. See also Accessing Jedox Integrator from PHP.
Drillthrough
For drillthrough data retrieval only, "D" rights on the specific rights object "Drillthrough" is required. Note that for creation of drillthrough data in a cube load, no rights on rights object "Drillthrough" is required.
