Do we need license for the Data Consumer

Mahulima

We have many Business users and want to give them only read access to the reports so we just want to give them Data Consumer Role. So for Data Consumer do we need License?

@Mahulima your license will need to have enough number of Data Consumers.. If you are the administrator of the system, you can see the number that you currently have by viewing your license info. Look at the edition allowances:

Hi

There are two types of users from a licensing perspective, Designers (who can also have admin permissions) and Consumers.

A role without access to the capability 'Access Designer Interface' will only have access to read only reports. If you need more Consumer user licenses then yes you should reach out to your Experian contact.

@Sueann See Is there a way only to increase the Number of Data Consumer Users?

@Mahulima yes, you can do that, but as Josh mentioned, please reach out to your account manager to discuss.
