Enable role-based chart editing (no ownership) and optional dashboard - chart edit inheritance

What is the problem or goal the end user is trying to solve or accomplish?

Teams with a “Primary Contributor” role need to edit/overwrite charts they didn’t create, at scale, without being admins and without per-object ownership maintenance. Dashboard edit access today doesn’t grant edit rights to the charts inside, so collaboration requires manual ownership changes on each chart.

How are they solving it currently?

  • Add contributors as owners on each chart (manual, error-prone).

  • Bulk-patch owners via API and re-run periodically to catch new charts (operational overhead).

  • “Save as” and replace charts on dashboards (creates duplicates, breaks lineage).

What is the recommended solution by the Customer?

Allow users with a designated role (e.g., “Primary Contributor”) to edit/overwrite any chart in a workspace or within specific dashboards, without needing to be explicit owners. Granting dashboard edit should be sufficient to edit charts contained in that dashboard.
