When I want to set permissions for a Data Source, I'm able to add a rule for a group but not for a user.

As you can see, there is no combo to change from group to user.

Tableau server 9.3.0 , site admin profile. Spanish language.

 

Thank you for your help!

    It's a User based license. The data source is Published.

     

    But I finally figured it out by myself. There are two ways to go to very similar screens. You can choose User just on one of both.

    Te get to the one I was using is by clicking on Permissions ( in spanish Permisos) on the Data Source list. See below screenshot.

    Once there you wont be able to add a User. The screen says you can... but can't... I guess it's a Tableau bug.

     

    So I figured out that I have to click on the name of the Data Source (in my case PARQUE_INSTALADO), and on the next screen click on Permissions. Then I'll be able to choose User/Group.

     

    Thanks to all anyway!
