1. Proxy as a non-admin user.
2. Go to a tile-based dashboard (for example, a recruiter dashboard) in Report Center.
3. Click the filter icon in the upper right corner.
4. Observe the error.

Post-2511 behavior change: On tile-based dashboards where the user does not have permission to at least one tile included in the dashboard (that is, roles grant access to only specific tiles under Reports Permission > Analytics Tiles and Dashboard, not “All”), performing the filter action fails with “The access validation is failed!” for non-admin users. 

1. Review the user’s role(s) in Admin Center > Manage Permission Roles.
2. Under Reports Permission > Analytics Tiles and Dashboard, choose one of the following:
   • Grant “All” tiles and dashboards access to the affected role; or
   • Ensure every individual tile that is part of the dashboard is explicitly selected for the role.
3. If granting “All” is not acceptable, adjust dashboard composition:
   • Remove tiles the role is not permitted to view from the shared dashboard; or
   • Create and share a copy of the dashboard that includes only tiles permitted for the role.
4. Save changes, have the user sign out and sign in again, then re-test the filter action on the dashboard.
