About: This article describes the Navigation Dropdown Menu in Bridge.
Purpose: Use the Navigation Dropdown Menu to access dashboards, datasets, settings, user groups, and the admin space.
Table of Contents
Introduction
The navigation dropdown menu can be found under the vertical ellipsis icon in the top right corner of the Bridge interface. This menu will access:
- Dashboards - The main page of the dashboards section.
- Datasets - The main page of the datasets section.
- Settings - The page where you can change your own Bridge user settings.
- User Groups - Create a group with whom you can share datasets or dashboards.
- Admin Page - A page for administrators of Bridge users at the organization.
Dashboards
Selecting the Dashboards option from the navigation menu brings users to the Dashboard home screen. This is where users can access all previously created dashboards, or dashboards that have been shared with them. For more information, see Dashboards tab.
Datasets
Selecting the Datasets option from the navigation menu brings users to the Datasets home screen. This is where users can access all uploaded datasets, or datasets that have been shared with them. For more information, see Datasets tab.
Settings
The account settings section allows users to update or change their name, email address, and password. An API Key is also available in the settings which can be used instead of a password in the Construct reporting credentials. Lastly, both email notification settings and dashboard section titles can be turned on or off.
User Groups
Users can create groups of other Bridge users from their organization. This can be useful for sharing datasets and jobs with more than one person. New user groups can be created by selecting the New User Group option.
On this page, users can also:
- Add or remove members from groups
- Rename a group or make the group public
- Delete a user group
Note: A Public Group is a group that any user in the organization can share with. Keep in mind that only Admin level users can create public groups in an organization.
Additionally, selecting the Users tab at the top of the interface provides a list of all Bridge users in the organization and which User Groups they are a part of.
Admin
The Admin page is only accessible to users with admin level permissions granted to them. This page allows for administrators to view individual user information, the activity of each user, and the ability to make permissions edits to a user's account.
Permissions
Only users with admin level permissions can set and edit individual user permission settings. Permissions settings include restricting some access to shared data, expanding account access to administrator level, and disabling/enabling user accounts.
- Enabling and Disabling a Users Account - For situations where staffing requires Bridge accounts to be disabled or enabled, an administrator can check and uncheck this box.
- Granting Additional Rights - Granting additional rights allows a second tier of visibility for dataset variables. Users can hide sensitive variables from a dataset, while still sharing the dataset with others. By establishing who has additional rights to view, you can hide key variables from others but not from others who have additional rights granted to them.
- Granting an Individual Admin Level Status - Individuals have the ability to be granted admin status. Clicking this box allows users the ability to change the setting discussed above.
Note: In some circumstances, depending on the complexity of the details you wish to hide from users, it might make more sense to have individual datasets created for specific groups or users. Using Construct, highly customized datasets can be created with only the variables that user/group should have access to.
