As many Kiwis will attest there is a serious focus on Privacy of information within New Zealand Central Government at the present moment.
So it was not a surprise when a customer asked if it would be possible to hide the export option from the SAS Web Report Studio interface.
And luckily enough in WRS 4.3 (SAS 9.2 and 9.3) you can!. All via the SAS Metadata Roles.
Found this table of roles for WRS on the SAS Support site here:
Predefined Roles and Capabilities for SAS Web Report Studi0 4.3
The guts is the following table which outlines each capability. As you can see export is only assigned to WRS Advanced users by default. So WRS Viewers should not be abel to export out of the box.
If you want to remove the export function from advanced users you will need to create a new role (we don’t recommend modifying the default roles as good practise) that has the export function removed. Then make sure it is assigned to all the relevant users and remove the default WRS Advanced role from these users.
