MODLR Security

MODLR security falls into two related parts: security within the platform, once a user is already in, and security to enter the platform in the first place.

Security within MODLR

Governs what an authenticated user can see and do once they're inside.

  • Instance Security: governs read, write, or no access to objects within a model, such as cubes, dimensions, elements, cards, and workviews. Applied at the instance level via Groups.
  • Access Tags and Application Security: governs whether a user can reach a screen, or an element, within an application at all.

See Screen access vs. Instance security for how these two relate to one another.

Security to access MODLR

Governs how a user gets in, before Instance Security or Application Security ever come into play.

  • Authentication: governs how a user proves who they are and signs in, including Single Sign-On (SSO).
  • Client Login and Password Rules: governs password expiry, login attempt limits, and password complexity for a client's users.
