Disable "Add To Pulse" Feature On Widgets
DISABLE "ADD TO PULSE" FEATURE ON WIDGETS FOR ALL VIEWERS
Few businesses don't want their Users (Viewers) of the dashboard to add pulse alerts from the visualizations of the dashboard. Though we don't have any feature in the current version of the product that lets you turn the 'Add to Pulse' off for specific widgets/dashboards or for all dashboards/widgets, we could turn the feature off for all dashboards/widgets for a specific user role using the REST APIs.
To perform this change, log into Sisense with your Admin credentials and go to Admin Tab > REST API (on the left pane)
Under the REST APIs, go to 0.9 and choose the PUT endpoint of */roles
/{idOrName}
/manifest
/{path} - Using the 'Try Out' feature, enter the following value for the different parameter required for executing this api end point.
/{idOrName}
/manifest
/{path} - Using the 'Try Out' feature, enter the following value for the different parameter required for executing this api end point.
IdOrName:
consumer
Path:
/widgets
Manifest:
{
"add_to_pulse": false
}

Note: If you have already done some customization done on the user role: 'consumer', then use the POST request of the same endpoint.
Once you execute the api endpoint, confirm if you get a response code of 200 which marks that the change has been made to the role settings.
After performing this using the api endpoint, the 'Viewers' of the dashboard will not have the ability to add to pulse but the settings of the designers and the admins will stay the same.
