Hiding folders All the files in an information object project are required for a report to use data in an information object, so you must publish all the files to an Actuate BIRT iHub Encyclopedia volume. The user, however, only needs to select the information object. You can simplify the user’s folder navigation by hiding the Data Sources folder and its contents and displaying only the Information Objects folder and the contents of that folder. You accomplish this task by using Management Console to assign the appropriate folder and file privileges to the user, using these general steps: 1 Create a security role, for example, BRS User. 2 Create a user profile for each BIRT Studio user, and assign the BRS User role to the users. 3 Select each folder, and assign the appropriate privileges to the BRS User role. By default, users do not have access to folders or files created by someone else. When you publish files, you must explicitly assign privileges to roles or users. To enable the user to see the information objects, select the top-level project folder and the Information Objects subfolder, select the BRS User role, then assign the Visible privilege. To enable the user to execute an information object, assign the Trusted Execute privilege to the .iob file. The Trusted Execute privilege permits the user to execute an information object without having privileges on the information object’s underlying data sources. For more information about creating roles and users, and assigning privileges for folders and files in an Actuate BIRT iHub Encyclopedia volume, see Managing an Encyclopedia Volume.
