connectionRoles
object
An object containing connection ID and role pairs, formatted as "<connection_id>": "<connection_role>". connection_role values must the name of a standard user role or the name of a custom user role that resolves to either a Viewer or Restricted Querier.
  • RESTRICTED_QUERIER - Can create new content and view workbooks and dashboards
  • VIEWER - Can only view dashboards
  • <CUSTOM_ROLE_NAME> - Abilities depend on the role’s included permissions
Example input: {"connection-id-1":"RESTRICTED_QUERIER", "connection-id-2":"CUSTOM_VIEWER"}
Base access roles are not respected. Connection roles should be specified using this parameter or by setting group permissions on the connection in Omni and then assigning embed users to those groups.
