Merging of User
Overview
The Analytics Merge process is triggered during a Zluri user merge operation. It ensures that dashboards, charts, ownership, and user roles are transferred from the source user to the target user within the analytics module.
Pre-Merge Validation
Before the merge begins, Zluri validates both users for analytics eligibility:
- If the source user is not an analytics user, the merge step is skipped.
- If the target user is not an analytics user, a new analytics profile is created automatically.
Merge Process
The merge runs asynchronously in the background and includes the following components:
Dashboard Migration
Item | Behavior |
---|---|
Ownership | Dashboards owned by the source user are reassigned to the target user, who receives full CRUD access. |
Visibility Settings | Existing sharing or visibility settings are preserved. |
Shared Dashboards | Dashboards shared with the source user remain visible to the target user, but ownership does not change. |
Draft Dashboards | All drafts created by the source user are transferred and editable. |
Last Updated | The "last updated by" field continues to show the source user. (Planned improvement.) |
Charts Migration
- Chart ownership is not transferred.
- Target users cannot edit or delete charts owned by the source user.
- Charts embedded in dashboards:
- Can be viewed by the target user
- Can be removed, but not edited
- Ownership labels continue to reflect the source user.
Overview Dashboard Handling
Special rules apply for Overview Dashboards:
Scenario | Result |
---|---|
Both users have a personal Overview | Target user retains their own Overview |
Target user has the default Zluri Overview, and source user has a personal Overview | Target user continues to see the default Overview; the source user’s is not migrated. |
Role Management
- During the merge, Zluri compares role priorities.
- The higher priority role is assigned to the target user.
Source User Post-Merge
- The source user is marked as inactive.
- Inactive users are restricted from login or future access.
