During installation, a predefined role – the VC Role – is deployed in the portal as part of the initial Visual Composer content. This role has all the necessary permissions to allow a user to perform modeling tasks while working with Visual Composer Storyboard, such as create, develop, manage and deploy models to the portal. The role includes full permissions for the Visual Composer folder in the portal. Additionally, each user should be assigned read permissions in order to access data services located on the back-end systems accessed through the portal.

Procedure

  1. Set permissions to security zones, to give End User control to the VC Role on all medium-safety content:

    1. Choose   System Administration   Permissions   Portal Permissions  .

    2. In the Portal Catalog, open the Security Zones folder and then the sap.com/NetWeaver.Portal/medium_safety folder.

    3. For the following objects in the medium_safety folder, assign End User permissions:

      • com.sap.vc.mmcompiler

      • com.sap.visualcomposer

      • com.sap.visualcomposer.portalconnector
