Data360 Analyze

Hi,

Posting my first question here.

For files which are uploaded onto server, it will be placed in a standard repository location, such as the default: "C:\Users\Administrator\Data3SixtyAnalyze\site-7731\shared\<user id>".

At this moment, files can be accessed should you know another user's ID.

Is there a way to prevent other users from accessing uploaded files which are placed in personal account folders?

The Data3Sixty Analyze application does not currently provide access controls for data files uploaded to the server. A roadmap candidate will provide additional security management capabilities to 'sandbox' users so they cannot access other users' data.

As an interim alternative you could consider building your data flows so that they acquire their source data files from a FTP server (using SFTP or FTPS protocol) and store any results files back to the FTP server. The user credentials to access the FTP server and the source/result file paths can be defined as a run properties, allowing each user to use a shared data flow but specify individual values for their runs.

Similarly, source data could be from database tables with, again credentials and table information stored as run properties.
