Tableau Server 10.1 Ownership changes, user permissions

Gilbert Vera Sep 29, 2017 8:14 AM

Hello this is similar to my questions in : 10.1 Server question Changing Ownership on a dashboard / datasource

Now on two dashboards with embedded passwords that I have to embedded back in the user permissions kind of changed. I do not know if it is related with changing the owners of those dashboards. And I just found out that changing owners in the server deletes the passwords. does it do anything to user permissions as well ?

thank you.

Greetings Gilbert Vera,

This is for security reason, you need to reset these passwords.
