Role privileges

Privileges are sets of permissions of a particular type and the associated components on which the permissions are granted. Administrators can define role privileges at various levels within Cloudera Data Visualization. This allows precise control over system access for different roles.

The Role Detail interface shows a table matrix of privilege components and specific permissions granted to a role for each component. Each privilege type (system, roles, connections, or datasets) tab shows the relevant permissions.
