PowerCenter Permissions

To generate workflows, users need folder and connection object permissions. Assign permissions in the PowerCenter Client.

Folder Permissions

Each project created in the Test Data Manager is associated with a folder in the PowerCenter repository. To view objects in the folder and run workflows for objects in the folder, users need folder permissions.
When you create a project, the TDM Server creates a folder in the PowerCenter repository for the project. By default, the owner of a project is also the owner of the folder and has read, write, and execute permissions for the folder.
Work with the Informatica administrator to assign folder permissions in the PowerCenter Repository Manager.

Connection Object Permissions

Users need connection object permissions to generate and run workflows.
Work with the Informatica administrator to assign the read and execute permissions to users that run workflows requiring the connection object. Assign write permissions to users that have the privilege to manage connections in the Test Data Manager.
Alternatively, the Informatica administrator can specify a default set of permissions for connection objects in the Workflow Manager. If enhanced security is enabled in the Workflow Manager, the Workflow Manager assigns the default permissions to users and user groups.
