How to grant report_view ACL for metric_instance table to the roles:  admin

Hi @BanuMahalakshmi,

1. Activate security_admin role in your user profile 
2. Go to “Access Control Lists” in the application navigator.
3. Find the “metric_instance” table’s ACL.
4. Open the “metric_instance” ACL.
5. In the “Roles” tab, add the “admin” role and set the operation to “read” (report_view).
6. Save the ACL.

Now, the “admin” role has read access to the “metric_instance” table.

Please mark it as solution proposed and helpful if it’s serves your purpose.

Thanks,Anand

Hi @BanuMahalakshmi,

What is the issue you're running into?

Your question looks like you simply need to go to ACL's lookup or create the report_view ACL, and assign admin as role. But since this seems so obvious, I think I'm missing something. 🙂

[-O-]

You don't need to grant those that specific roles to admin, it will pass those role checks either way.

However admin will not pass certain scope limitations - like it will not be able to access scopes that have scope administration enabled, like HR.

Are you sure whatever problem you are running into is role and not perhaps scope related?
