To prevent map or dashboard file from being modified by multi-user concurrently and thus cause conflicts, each map or dashboard file can only have one editor.

The editing rights can be transferred within a team so that all team members have the chance to share their insights on the map or dashboard. By default, the initial editing rights of a map or dashboard is assigned to the creator of the map or dashboard.

Map viewers cannot save any changes to the map file, unless they save the map as another one.

For site maps and device group maps:

▪The editing rights of a site map or system device group map is granted to the user who firstly opens the map, and automatically released once the user closes the map.

▪Only the users with the Site Management privilege can own the editing rights of a site map when they open it.

▪For the maps of public device groups and personal device groups, the device group creator owns the editing rights by default.

Dashboard Editing Rights

Dashboard viewers cannot save any changes to the dashboard file, as well as run and stop the dashboard. To modify the contents of the dashboard file, they can save it as another dashboard first.

Note: A dashboard viewer can comment on widgets in the dashboard by adding notes.
