edit report permissions for multiple reports at same time

net1993 — Tue, 15 Jan 2019 09:15:18 GMT

Hi
Today I needed to edit perm. for 16 reports from private to app but I didnt had time to check how to do it on os level so I done it manually but this is absolutely stupid.
Isn't there other way , fx change perm. on App level or something else ?

HI,

I am not aware of any UI function to change permission on multiple objects.

Save searches with private permissions will be in users directory any way.

There is a blog post about permission which might be interessting for you http://dev.splunk.com/view/webframework-developapps/SP-CAAAE88

If you want to change owership there is a UI option.

That could be woraround but 1 question:
Isnt that file only allowing you to change from shared in app to shared globally KO?
