In this section, we look at how to create a view which requires authorisation to be published; we will use the same sub-folder we enabled the view approval setting for for this process.
Note
These steps are normally performed by a user who is a view administrator or creator. It is assumed that this user does not have the authorisation to grant approval for the views.
Create and prepare a view. (See Creating a View for more information on how to do this.)
After creating the models and preparing the data, click on Publish
