Which data Growi can access

ExplanationAccount3 min read

Growi reads LetsGrow data with your own login. The LetsGrow platform decides what that login may see, and Growi works with that answer. Nothing you type in chat or save as custom instructions can widen it.

Growi has no crop list of its own. It asks the platform for your crop groups, then for the crops in each group, and shows you what comes back. Every read of data after that carries your login too, and the access check happens on the server.

A crop group can hold crops of several members. Every crop the platform lists for a group is shown under that group, also the crops of the other members. A group without any crop is not shown.

Own crop Shared crop
Administrator You Another user
On the crop card No name The name of its administrator
How Growi reads its data Through the modules you own Through the crop group, which the platform allows for every member

You ask questions about a shared crop the same way as about your own. How to find and pick one is on Choosing a crop.

When the platform refuses the data of a module, Growi tells you that the data may need module access you don’t have, and to contact LetsGrow to check your access. Growi says “may” because it cannot tell a module you have no access to from a module that does not exist. A server error or a timeout does not give this message.

  • A conversation of another user. You can only open your own.
  • The other reports of a colleague who shared a report schedule with you. A share gives you the reports of that one schedule.
  • A shared report schedule after you leave the company. The share only works while your login carries the company it was made under.

Sharing a schedule is described on Schedules and sharing.

Data Where it comes from
Weather forecast A Weather Solutions module linked to the selected crop. When the crop has none, or no crop is selected, a Weather Solutions module of your account. When several come into question, Growi lists them by name and asks which one you mean. Without any, Growi tells you that your account has no weather forecast source and that LetsGrow support can add one. See Weather forecast.
Energy prices Public Dutch day-ahead electricity prices. They are the same for every user and need no crop and no account data. See Energy prices.
  • Own crop: a crop you administer.
  • Shared crop: a crop another user administers, that you reach because you are both in its crop group.

The other terms are in the Glossary.

  • Growi cannot give you access to a crop, a crop group or a module. The LetsGrow platform decides that.
  • Custom instructions change how Growi answers, never which data it reads. See Custom instructions and crop memory.
