Adding a Permission

If you need to set specific items for which a user or group has permissions in Spotfire Metrics, follow these steps in the Spotfire Metrics Modeler.

1. Click Manage Permissions.
2. Click Add Permission and provide the following information.

   Option	Description
   Principal Type	From the drop-down list, select whether the permission applies to a group or a user.
   Principal Items	From the drop-down list, select the item for which permission is granted. If you selected group for Principal Type, this list shows group names. If you selected user for Principal Type, this list shows user names.
   Securable Type	From the drop-down list, select Feed. Only Feed is a securable type at this time.
   Securable Items	From the drop-down list, select the item to secure. Note: If the permission already exists for the specified Group or Principal Type, the Securable Items drop-down list is blank.

   Note: If a user is assigned to the Viewer role, the user can see all of the Feeds within the client. Once a specific permission for a particular Feed is added for a user, then the user will only see that specific feed.
3. Click Save.
