Create a Model Administrator (Master Data Services)

Applies to: SQL Server - Windows only Azure SQL Managed Instance

In Master Data Services, create a model administrator when you want a group or user to have all permissions to all objects in one or more models.

Tip

To simplify administration, create a Windows or local group and configure it as a model administrator. You can then add and remove users from the group without accessing Master Data Manager.

Prerequisites

To perform this procedure:

• You must have permission to access the User and Group Permissions functional area.

• You must be a model administrator. For more information, see Administrators (Master Data Services).

To create a model administrator

1. In Master Data Manager, click User and Group Permissions.

2. On the Users or Groups page, select the row for the user or group that you want to edit.

3. Click Edit selected user.

4. Click the Models tab.

5. Optionally, select a model from the Model list.

6. Click Edit.

7. Click the model you want to grant permission to.

8. From the menu, select Admin.

9. Complete steps 7 and 8 for each model you want the group or user to be an administrator for.

10. Click Save.
