Data connection permissions
Data connections enable you to seamlessly connect to external data sources. This article covers the set of permissions and visibility options that exist for data connections.
Access to a data connection is determined by the connection's visibility.
When a connection's visibility is set to private:
- Only the user who created the connection can see, manage, or use the connection.
- The connection is accessible anywhere in Noteable and loaded when the kernel is started.
When a connection's visibility is set to space-level:
- Both Owners and Contributors of the space can manage or use the space's connections.
- The connection is only accessible from within the designated space and loaded when the kernel is started.
A connection's visibility is set during the creation process and cannot be edited later.
All data connections that a user has access to, private or space-level, are loaded into the environment when the user starts a kernel. Other users who are collaborating on the same kernel will have access to these connections (and not their own) for the duration of the kernel session.
