Change Folder Permissions

Info

Hierarchy of permissions
Kloudfuse applies the highest permission a user has to access a resource. To prevent a user from accessing a folder or dashboard, consider their role in the organization, folder permissions, and dashboard permissions.

  • You cannot override organization administrator permissions; they can access all resources.

  • User’s permissions on a folder apply to all dashboards and subfolders.

  • An explicitly set lower permission level is ineffective if a more permissive rule applies higher in folder/dashboard hierarchy.

  1. Hover your pointer over the Folder Name field of the folder you plan to change

  2. When the Permission Settings (gear) icon appears, click it.
    Here, we change the permissions for folder forecast.

  3. The Folder Settings of forecast interface appears.
    Folder settings include assignments by Role (these correspond to Grafana roles), by individual User (if present), and by Group (if present).
    The explicitly granted User permissions take precedence, and override both Role and Group assignments. Similarly, Group assignments override Role assignments.

  4. For example, to give users with Viewer role permissions to change the folder contents, set that permission to Editor.

  5. To add more permissions to the same folder, see Add Folder Permissions.
    To delete permissions, see Delete Folder Permissions.

  6. When you complete adding or changing folder permissions, close the Folder Settings interface.
