Using Search Profiles

Once you have defined a search profile, you can make it the default search profile, or you can assign it to one or more roles.

If you make a search profile the default profile, then it applies to all users who do not have a role with a search profile.

If you assign the search profile to a role, then when a user is assigned to that role, the user is restricted to searches allowed by that profile. If a user is assigned to multiple roles, and so has multiple search profiles, then that user can perform a search if any of the search profiles allows the search.

Each role can have at most one search profile. If a role does not specify a search profile, then the role plays no part in allowing or restricting searches by search profiles.

If a user request has been allowed after being tested against a search profile, then the DSA ignores the DXmanager configuration items for limit list and limit search when processing that request.

Use the following commands to manage search profiles:
