Setting Permissions for Spaces

Specify who can see reports for a particular space.

If you want a user or user group to view reports for a particular space, you need to assign them permissions in that space. You do this by editing the space's permissions and then either creating a user override or adding a group. For more on permissions, search Managing Permissions in the Jive Core documentation.

You can customize a specific space to give users permission to see its reports.
Fastpath: Admin Console: Permissions > Space Permissions

To set permissions for a single user:

  1. In the Space Permissions page, type or browse for the space.
  2. Under User Overrides, click Create a user override.
    Note: If you don't see "Create a user override," you may need to click Customize this space's permissions at the top of the page.
  3. In the box, start typing the name of the user and then select their name from the drop-down list.
  4. Click the Set exception button to view the permissions you can set.
  5. When the Set Exception dialog opens, select View next to Reports. To remove view permissions, see Blocking Reports from Certain Users.
  6. Click Save.

To set permissions for a user group:

  1. In the Space Permissions page, type or browse for the space.
  2. Under Groups with access, click Add group.
    Note: If you don't see "Add group," you may need to click Customize this space's permissions at the top of the page.
  3. In the box, start typing the name of the group and then select the group name from the drop-down list.
  4. Select Custom in the Select Permission Level field.
  5. When the Configure Custom Permissions dialog opens, select View next to Reports. In addition, you can make any other changes to this group's access. To make sure users can't view reports, see Blocking Reports from Certain Users.
