Configure read access for PI AF objects

The RtReports service account needs read access to each AF element, table, and event frame that you want to access through RtReports. You can set access permissions for AF objects in PI System Explorer or in PI AF Builder. PI AF Builder is a Microsoft Excel plug-in that allows you to edit PI AF objects in bulk. If you need to edit the security settings for many objects, then PI AF Builder is the best choice.
