More granular permissions
I'd like to be able to set permissions for edit/view in Explore at the Query and Dashboard levels. We have a lot of people who need to have editor permissions in order to create their own Queries, Dashboards, etc. but that doesn't mean they should be able to edit every Dashboard or Query they've had shared with them / have access to. Permission setting at the user level doesn't give enough flexibility.
Particularly, if there's a standardized Dashboard, I'd like to be able to lock down that Dashboard and all the Queries used on it to "View only" for most everyone to ensure that it can't be accidentally changed.

I'd like to second this request!

Same! In general it would be nice to have a permission to create and edit the user's own queries and dashboards without the permission to edit those created by others.

Hello Elizabeth,
I totally agree with you and I am facing exactly the same issue. The user with Editor role in Explore can basically modify any Dashboard that is shared with him/her. This means, we cannot achieve our use case of defining a Dashboard centrally and share it with few agents, then they should not be able to touch that.
You can achieve (somehow) the Query level by creating a different data source and restrict permissions there. Unfortunately, this does not work for Dashboards because you can have queries from different data sources within the same Dashboard.
This means that definitely a Dashboard level refinement of edit permissions should be defined.
Any update here from the Product team?
Thanks!
