Enhanced Control Over Report Deletion

We're introducing a new enhancement to provide better control and management over the deletion of reports within SeaLights, ensuring the integrity and availability of your critical quality data. This update provides more granular control over who can delete reports, particularly those created by other users.

This new control helps to:

  • Improve Data Management: Gain better oversight and control over your report lifecycle.

  • Prevent Accidental Deletion: Reduce the risk of reports being deleted by mistake.

  • Enhance Collaboration: Provide clear guidelines on report management within teams, fostering a more organized environment.

How It Works

This new deletion control will apply to all types of reports over time, starting with Test Gap Analysis (TGA) reports. The deletion experience will now be as follows:

  • Report Creator: You can always delete any report that you have personally created. The delete option will be fully available to you.

  • Admin/DevOps Users: Users with Admin or DevOps roles will have the ability to delete any report they can view, regardless of who created it. This ensures that privileged users can manage reports across the organization.

  • Other Users: For any report not created by you, and if you do not hold an Admin or DevOps role, the delete button will be disabled. If you hover over the disabled button, a tooltip will appear stating: "Only the creator can delete this report."

This change ensures that reports are managed responsibly, with clear permissions for deletion, while still allowing creators and administrators the necessary control.
