User Permission based on eVars

Implemented as of 20 October 2016.

We want this too @benjamingaines, for all the reasons already listed in the comments.

Please can you sort this out? This is such basic feature that's been missing for so long!

PS I love @AdamW's idea about permissions for classifications.  We have a lot of classifcations and this would really help us mange these

It's blowing my mind that this request is 6 years old and not a standard feature.

I want to create clean interfaces with reports and metrics that are relevant to the user who is logging on.

Especially given the ability to just free text search for reports now in the All Reports menu of Adobe Analytics, I don't want users to find random reports that they don't understand and start using them, make bad decisions. Sure, adding useful names and descriptions helps, but users won't know when things are set and fired.

What I would really like, beyond even this, is the ability to restrict access to the classifications of eVars and props. We have a lot of classifications for different parts of our teams on the same variable, and I don't want to unnecessarily clutter up the UI for different team members.

Within the admin panel for defining a new user group in Adobe Analytics, there is a capability to customize access to custom traffic and custom conversion variables.  For the traffic, all sprops are listed and any can be selected to define which are shown to the user group.  However for the custom conversion, when you select to "customize" the conversion reports, only custom events are shown for defining permissions.  Evars are not shown as a variable that can be restricted for a user group. 

This enhancement would be very helpful for our business as we need to restrict access to certain variables with PII information to internal users that have persmission to access that data.  While events are helpful, the real value in restricting variables would be conversion evars with contextual information, not just stick counts of events.

Hi,

I do need permissions on evars, because I do not want to let anyone with an account know about conversion-data. For example: I plan on giving my product managers an account. they do have to know about all the data for their products. so i have to enable events like order value, orders and units. but they do not have to know about running A/B-tests, the order value of every order number, payment method, marketing tracking codes, marketing channels, suggest search usage, etc. call it data obsession, but there are informations, that have to be only available for a litte circle of people in a company.

I think my predecessors in this thread will agree.

counter-question: why is there a permission management for props but not for the evars?

I'm not sure whether anyone is still watching this very old thread, but if you are, could you respond with a comment about why you need permissions on eVars? How does the inability to limit visibility to eVars hurt you? 

We are settling some questions around how the next version of Analytics permissions should work, and having some use cases for permissions on eVars will be extremely helpful. 

Hi, We are new clients to SC and I am totally blown away that this isn't already an option.  I understood v15 to be cutting edge and this is a severe hindrance.

PLEASE, PLEASE make it an option to allow access to all parts of conversion.  My clients need access to Campaign>Tracking code and 1 eVar (internal campaign) but NOT Sales Cycle, Purchases, etc.  And as we grow, they will need access to specific pieces of conversion, but not all at once.

Thank you in advance!!

Really disappointed not to see this listed as one of the "completed" items for SC15. This is a big need for our company - would love to get the right eyes on this.

Was just about to post this. Incredibly needed!
