  • 1.  How remove/hide a Upload files button

    Posted Wed February 15, 2023 11:42 AM

    Hi!

    How remove/hide a Upload files button? This method didn't help (Removing a user interface element ).

    This one didn't help either. (Customizing roles)

    Hello Ilyas,

    did you check the Cognos Administration -> Security -> Capabilities

    And change the permissions ?

    Regards,
    Hendrik

    Hello! This option is not suitable because the user must be able to upload files to a My folder.

    Hi Ilyas, How is the user supposed to upload a file if not by the item from your first post? I'm just curious.

    Hi Philipp! The script is like this:the user creates a data module, adds a new source, and uploads a file.

    Hi Ilyas, I can't check it now but maybe deselecting here just hides the New-icon but not the functionality (still available as a data source in data modules):
