Dimension Security Update API

In Planful, dimension access for reporting is controlled by the Dimension Security configuration and Setup. The UpdateDimensionSecurityByUser call saves the custom security data by user at the cube level. This security is applicable for all cube-based reporting in Planful (i.e. Dynamic Reports, Report Books, FPP, Excel Add-in, etc.).

Prior to using the UpdateDimensionSecurityByUser call, administrators establish dimension security using the Planful Dimension Security Configuration and Setup pages. Dimensions can be expanded to display specific members to secure as disucessed below. Once complete, the administrator uses the API to update user details.
