1315081 - Allow multiple non-admin people to edit a query in re:dash

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Data Platform and Tools :: General, defect)

Description

[Mark Reid [:mreid]]

:cpeterson requested this functionality so that a team can collaborate on a query with a stable URL

One possible approach is to create a group in re:dash such that users in the group can edit one another's queries. This functionality may already exist in the latest re:dash.

Allowing multiple non-admin users to edit/maintain a query would be helpful because the query URL would be stable and wouldn't require updating links in wikis, Google Docs, or bookmarks.

Some of the literate programming tools such as Runkit allow notebooks to be GitHub repos. Maybe an integration like that so that when you fork a query, you fork a repo and can submit pull requests?

We've been discussing something similar: https://github.com/mozilla/redash/issues/7

Apparently support for this has landed upstream, we need to turn it on w an environment variable. We have plans to do this on staging soon so we can test it out and see how it works. You can watch https://github.com/mozilla/redash/issues/257 to track our progress.

Is this fixed rob?

[Rob Miller [:rmiller]]

This is deployed and tested on staging, but it hasn't yet been deployed to production, mainly because we've been holding off on deployments due to the quantum / work week / holidays window. This will be deployed to production either this week or in the first week of the new year.

This is in production FWIW.
