    Hi!

    I create a role with some access to Projects and Report and Analytics, and added Manage Reports and Analytics in Functional Security Policies and BI Consumer at Role Hierarchy. But not all the folders are available inside Reports and Analytics > All Folders >> Shared Folders >> Projects.
    Is there any additional information I should add to my role?

    Thank you!
