In version 3.0, we introduced a shared space on top of application creation, where we added shared folders and permission settings to the shared space, enabling various business departments to access authoritative, unified data on demand.

Shared Space

In the main menu of Hengshi SENSE, application creation is divided into two tabs, Application Creation and Shared Space. Users with Data Management and System Management roles have full administrator privileges for the shared application space; they are the initiators of this space.

Administrators can create new folders and applications in the shared space and set permissions for them. Setting permissions for folders and applications allows authorized users to legally view and use the data in the authorized folders and applications.

Folders

After entering SENSE, analysts have three modules in the left navigation bar: Application Marketplace, Application Creation, Settings.

Click Application Creation -> Shared Space, then click 'Create New Folder' in the upper right corner of the page to create a new folder.

The operations that can be performed on folders include:

  • Permission Management
  • Move
  • Rename
  • Delete

Permission Management

You can manage the permissions of a folder. Permissions that can be set for folders include Administrators, Editors, and Viewers.

Administrators

If a user has administrator permissions for a folder, they can perform the following actions on that folder and all the folders and applications within it:

  1. Permission Management

  2. Rename

  3. Move

  4. Delete

  5. Edit Applications

Editors

If a user has editor permissions for a folder, they can perform the following actions on that folder and all the folders and applications within it:

  1. Rename

  2. Move

  3. Edit Applications

Viewers

If a user has viewer permissions for a folder, the viewer can only view the application, without the three-dot menu, and cannot perform any other actions.

Move

You can move apps and folders to folders with edit permissions.

When moving, you can choose to retain permission settings. If the mover does not have administrator permissions for the target folder, they cannot retain permission settings. If you move a folder and do not retain permission settings, delete the permission settings for that folder and all folders and applications within it.

  1. Folders in the shared space cannot be moved across regions (e.g., moving a folder from shared space to application creation area).
  2. Only users with Data Management and System Management roles can move folders within the shared space directory.

Rename

You can rename a folder.

Delete

Folders can be deleted, provided that the folder is empty; it does not support deleting folders that still contain subfolders or applications.

Applications

Applications in the shared space differ from those in the personal space in 3 ways:

  1. Applications in the shared space cannot be published.
  1. Applications from the personal space can be moved to the shared space, but applications from the shared space cannot be moved to the personal space.
  1. Applications in the shared space can be moved within the shared space.

Otherwise, applications in the shared space are the same as in the personal space.

Click Application Creation -> Shared Space, enter a folder, and then click 'Create New Application' in the upper right corner of the page to create a new application.

Creating a new application comes in two types:

  • Blank Application

The application's default name is "New Application," which can be changed to a name that better fits the business logic.

Users can create datasets, process data, build relationship models, and create charts and tables within the application to meet specific analysis needs.

  • Import Template

Creating an application via "Import Template" is detailed in Application Template.

The operations that can be performed on an application include:

  • Permission Management
  • Preview
  • Export Template
  • Create Copy
  • Replace Data Connection
  • Move
  • Rename
  • Delete
