Share semantic model with individual users
You can share a semantic model if you are the owner or have the ModifyAllRecords permission. This allows flexibility in cases where the owner is unavailable or when sharing is needed across companion orgs.
Note Semantic models can be shared both from Data 360 and from Tableau Next. In Tableau Next,
models can only be shared at Viewer level. To allow edit access from Tableau Next, you must use
workspace sharing. See Share Assets in Tableau Next.

Set general access for all users
General access is the default level of access to a semantic model for all users in an org. When you create a model, general access is restricted. Only users you share with individually can access the model.
- If you set the general access for a semantic model to Viewer, you can still grant individual users Editor access.
- If you grant an individual user Viewer access and set the general access to Editor, that user has Editor access because the higher level of access takes precedence.
