https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Metadata-permissions-on-folders/m-p/53627#M11326 Hi:<BR /> This is not really a SAS Macro or DATA step question. Since it involves Platform Administration and the Metadata associated with a Platform installation, you might find more platform folks hanging out in the Stored Process and/or the Web Report Studio forums. Or, you could open a track with Tech Support and work with them on your access and permissions question.<BR /> <BR /> cynthia<BR /> <BR /> To open a track with Tech Support, go to: <A href="http://support.sas.com/ctx/supportform/createForm" target="_blank">http://support.sas.com/ctx/supportform/createForm</A> Wed, 21 Jul 2010 13:30:43 GMT Cynthia_sas 2010-07-21T13:30:43Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Metadata-permissions-on-folders/m-p/53626#M11325 All,<BR /> <BR /> We have built a web application using the Stored Process Server in which the Open Metadata Interface is used to display folders (and subtrees) defined in the metadataserver.<BR /> Some users or usergroups are restricted to see certain folders, so permissions are set by access control templates.<BR /> <BR /> The thing I want to do is do display only those folders from the metadata that the user is permitted to see, using the open metadata interface. I know it has something to do with the AccessControlTemplate and AccessControlEntry metadata types, but it is kinda hard to ask the proper questions to the metadataserver.<BR /> <BR /> I know a Tree metadatatype is associated to 0 or more AccessControlEntry elements.<BR /> I also know a Person metadatatype is associated to 0 or more AccessControlEntry elements.<BR /> But how to get the right permission on a Tree, that is somewhat difficult.<BR /> <BR /> Can anyone give me some directions to perform this "trick".<BR /> Any help is greatly appreciated.<BR /> <BR /> Regards, Raoul.
