Hi Ashish,

Main area in the Responsive dashboard to share it with user is the sharing panel. So whoever you share it there (can be role, group, user). By sharing you can identify who can see this dashboard.

There is one additional configuration possible on top - in the dashboard properties you can restrict dashboard to the role (e.g. pa_viewer), this will allow prevent sharing dashboard by incident with user who do not have a role. If restrict to role is chosen - this will mean that in order to see the dashboard user should have this dashboard shared with (via role, group or user at the sharing panel) AND he should have one of the role specified in the "restricted to role" at the dashboard properties page.

For the user you shared directly the dashboard - double check if he has also the pa_viewer role.

You can find more detailed info of the permissions at the Responsive Dashboards here:

Thanks for your response.

Is there any way to hide the 'New Dashboard' option from menu for non admin users?

Look at the pa_dashboards table, Right click and Configure Security - either disable the "Create" permission for 'pa_dashboard' where the role says pa_viewer, or remove the role from that ACL.   That SHOULD remove the New button for you.
