Introduction
This video is a step by step guide on how to create the Cognos Analytics licensed roles in your Cognos Analytics Environment for versions 11.0.0 to 11.0.6.

Creating the roles is a key part of setting up an authenticated Cognos Analytics environment and this Video and Blog is designed to help Cognos Administrators learn the basics steps required for this important task.

In the video we will show the following:
How to create the Analytics Administrator role.
How to remove “Everyone” from the built-in Cognos roles.
How to create the Analytics Explorer role.
How to create the Analytics User role.
How to create the Information Distribution role.
Environment
In this example we will be using Cognos Analytics 11.0.5.0 with an Active Directory 2012 R2 Namespace.
For the purposes of this example we have setup the following groups and users in an Active Directory Namespace called
‘Active Directory’
:
Active Directory Group
User ID in Group
Analytics Administrators
Analytics Administrator
Analytics Explorers
Analytics Explorer
Analytics Users
Analytics User
Information Distribution
Information User
Please note that the actual steps to create the groups and users in Active Directory as well as details on how to configure a Namespace in Cognos Configuration are outside the scope of this tutorial
