Setting Permissions for ProjectWise Project Insights Team Members

Team members must have the following permissions set, in order to be able to view or configure the ProjectWise Project Insights dashboard within their project.

  • View Project Insights Dashboard
  • Configure Project Insights Dashboard

The CONNECT Center uses role-based access control. This means that team members inherit their permissions through the role that is assigned to them. You can either set these permissions for a role and then assign that role to a team member, or you can assign a team member to a role and then set these permissions for that role.

You can assign permissions using just enterprise roles (a role that can be used for all projects in your organization), just project roles (a role that only exists in a specific project), or a mix of both enterprise roles and project roles.

For example: You might give the View Project Insights Dashboard permission to an enterprise role called 'Guest', in order to allow all team members in your organization who have the 'Guest' enterprise role to be able to view the ProjectWise Project Insights dashboard in all projects where it is configured. You might also give the Configure Project Insights Dashboard permission to an enterprise role called 'Project Manager', in order to allow all team members in your organization who have the 'Project Manager' enterprise role to be able to configure ProjectWise Project Insights dashboard settings in all projects. Finally, maybe you have a team member who needs to configure dashboard settings for a particular project only, and you do not want to add them to the 'Project Manager' enterprise role. In this case, you could go to the project and create a project role called 'Project Insights Admin', give that role the Configure Project Insights Dashboard permission, and then assign that role to only the team members in the project that need this permission.
