A user that is granted permissions to a dashboard cannot grant permissions to others for the dashboard

[emtwo]

STR:

1. Create a new dashboard
2. Give another person permission for the dashboard
3. The other person tries to give permission to a third person

Actual result: Silent failure. The user seems to be in the list but they don't have permissions to edit

Expected result: The permissions should either be added or an error is given that explains "permission denied"

@emtwo How do you grant a user permissions to edit a dashboard? I am not seeing anything in the menus of a dashboard.

@alison985 This is how it looks like if I create a dashboard on stage:

I wonder if this is a permission issue for you?

Looking at the code it uses showPermissionsControl which ends up being set in the Redash settings system via the environment variable REDASH_FEATURE_SHOW_PERMISSIONS_CONTROL and it defaults to false. Seems like this was enabled in stage/prod and you'll need to enable it locally, too.

Yep, that configuration setting allowed me to see "Manage Permissions" in the menu.

This is reproducible against upstream master. Submitted PR against upstream: getredash#2650

Merged upstream! ✨

Verified as fixed. An error explaining the permission denied is displayed:
