Profile attributes security

Hello Helical Insight,

I am using helical insight enterprise edition 4.1 GA. Can we use “profile attributes”? Ex: if a user has profile attribute “companies”, then we want to add filter as table.company_name in logged in users profile attribute name “companies” at the metadata security level?

Thank You,
Netta.

Hello Netta,

Yes it is possible using “in condition”. It will be something like below

check(“${profile}”,”companies”)

Now if the above condition gets satisfied then the condition mentioned in the filtering place will ge executed.

In filter something like below can be written then

Table_name.Column_name IN ($p{profile[‘companies’]})
