Data Miner Security - Add or Edit Authorization

You can use the Add/Edit Authorization screen to set up data miner file security for all users or a single user, and to edit existing user authorization on a data miner file. The system checks an individual user ID first, then the user group, and finally All Users to define what security/authorization applies to the files within the data miner application.

To open the Add/Edit Authorization screen, click a User name or the Need to create a new authorization? Click here to add link on the Data Miner Security tab.

The following fields appear on the Add/Edit Authorization screen:
