How to List Dashboards and Data Models a User Has Access To
As a Sisense administrator sometimes you want a quick way to get the list of data models and dashboards a user can access. There is no direct way to do this through the user interface and through the API it requires multiple calls.
Included with this article are 2 scripts that each make multiple API calls and return the list of either dashboard (userdashboardlist.py) or data models (userdatamodellist.py) based on the user that contains the passed parameter.
To have these scripts work with your Sisense environment, edit each file and replace the “<replaceurl>” with your Sisense URL (i.e. https://companyname.sisense.com) and “<replacetoken>” with an administrator user’s API token (User Profile Settings).
From userdashboardlist.txt (to be renamed to .py)
From userdatamodellist.txt (to be renamed to .py)
Sample output
List of accessible dashboards for users who have “fr” in their name and then for users who have “coke” in their name:
