TIBCO Spotfire® Server and Environment Security

Impact of Relaxing the TERR Service Security Settings

If you have scripts that cannot run in restricted mode because they need access to resources on the system or network, then you can change the settings to enable those scripts to run.

This table shows the resulting execution mode, given user role, service configuration, and whether the script is marked as trusted in the library.

Script Author terr.restricted.execution.mode disable.spotfire.trust.checks Trusted Script Use evalREX
* True * * Yes
Yes False * * No
No False True * No
No False False True No
No False False False Yes

A TERR data function runs without evalREX only if terr.restricted.execution.mode is False and one of the following conditions also exists.

  • The data function is trusted in the Spotfire library.
  • The request to run the data function originates from a member of the Script author group.
  • TERR service is configured with disable.spotfire.trust.checks=True.
