Hi Peter,
For TM1 database security the user needs to belong at least one group with the following access to see (READ) a view.
- READ on the cube
- READ on each dimension used in the cube
- For each dimension used in the cube with an }ElementSecurity cube, READ access on the elements used in the view. If a dimension doesn't have an }ElementSecurity cube then element security is not applied
Cell security won't block you from seeing a view, but it can cause you to not see values in cells (you can see the cell but not the value).
Let me know if this explanation helps.
