Users Management
The Permissions page allows you to quickly review and if necessary update permissions of existing users into MoQu Roles.
Members of the MoQu Admin role can see permissions in the schema.
MoQu Permissions Levels
MoQu comes with 3 permissions levels:
- Viewer: Authorised to see any data in the Dumpster (other than user permissions)
- Author: All permissions of a Viewer, and can run indexing tasks adding models, components and attributes to the database as per the configured rules. Cannot change the configuration
- Admin: All permissions of an Author, and authorised to edit the configuration, changing indexing rules, attributes rules, filters, cached reports conditions etc. As well as seeing other users permissions

MoQu Permissions control what a user can do while connected to a Dumpster (a Schema within a SQL database), they are based on membership into database roles. These are different from BIMSens licence levels (Developer, Contributor, Viewer) which control how a user can modify or interact with a BIMSens App. In summary: 1. To connect to a new Dumpster or configure an existing one, a user needs a BIMSens Developer licence, and MoQu Admin role 2. To run indexing in a configured Dumpster, a user needs a BIMSens Developer licence, and MoQu Author role 3. To view any indexed data and existing configuration settings, a user needs a BIMSens Viewer licence and MoQu Viewer role 4. To query the MoQu index from Power BI or other clients, a user needs no BIMSens licence but membership to the MoQu Viewer role |
Change Permissions
To edit permissions navigate to the Permissions page, and tick or untick the permission to change for the given user or group.

To edit permissions, a user must be a member of the db_securityadmin or db_owner roles on the database, or have ALTER permission on the role or ALTER ANY ROLE permission. These permissions are not granted by MoQu role membership for security reasons. |
