Hi Team,
I have create a control " Building" which has these values as default in the paramteres : a,b,c. Now I want to give the permission to one user to add or remove building values and that change is reflected to everyone who views the dashboard. Is there a way to do that, currently the change is only visible to the person who has the permission to add or remove but for others they only see the default values.

Hi @misrsona ,
the one person is adding the element within a analysis?
BR

no that user will see the controls drop list on a tab in the dashboard view . They will add the elements from that , the value of that parameter flows into a calculated field which changes the values of the chart. In other words, i want that user to have the ability to update default parameter values from the dashboard.

can you make that user as Author and share the Analysis with that user?
If yes, then this user can change the default parameter value

Thanks for the reply! that would be my last option if there is no possible way to do through the dashboard.

if it is an embedded dashboards, you may store the parameter value in database and allow user to modify it by an application. I can’t think of other options to allow a user to change a default parameter value of a dashboard which will apply to other users.

Thanks, I allowed the user with author access to edit the parameter value
