The Dashboard Access Control add-on is an advanced dashboard sharing tool.
Using the Dashboard Access Control you can:
- Request access to dashboards that are not shared with them, based on the add-on and dashboard configurations
- Get email notifications for relevant access request updates
- Manage access requests: approve or reject a request, comment on a request
- Rebrand emails
Dashboard owners and Administrators can allow or prevent users from requesting access to dashboards from the dashboard menu:
Dashboards that are allowed for access requests are displayed on the dashboard menu with a “lock” icon.
Users can request access to dashboards that have not been shared with them.
Users and access request approvers can manage requests from the “Manage Dashboard Access” windows.
