As an embed user, can I create a new dashboard/look and share with another embed user?

Yep! The save_content permission can be granted to embed users:

Single Sign-on (SSO) Embedding

Create Looker embeds that use your application's sign-on for authentication.

They don’t have as rich an experience for browsing content, but they can save and share content.

Hello ! I have the same question..

With save_content permission, the embedded user is able to edit and save already created dashboards. BUT the user is NOT able to create NEW dashboards from the embedded dashboard. Is this the expected behavior? Or should I configure something else?

Note: If I perform a sudo from Looker UI for the embedded user, the user is able to create new dashboards correctly. So, it seems that permissions are configured OK.

I have the opposite problem. I am able to create new dashboards and add new visualisation to it. But as soon as I edit the Dashboard via “Edit Dashboard” option it gives me the error : “ Uh oh Your save failed”.

But all works perfectly fine when I perform sudo
