    Status of the capabilities listed here:

    Already added to Permission.Capability:

    • RunExplainData (Run Explain Data)
    • CreateRefreshMetrics (Create/Refresh Metrics)
    • SaveAs (Save As)
    • PulseMetricDefine (superseded Ask Data Lenses)

    Still missing:

    • Move for data sources (workbook ChangeHierarchy is present but there is no equivalent for data sources)

    Ask Data Lenses (View, Overwrite, Move, Delete, Set Permissions) are effectively obsolete since Ask Data was replaced by Pulse; skipping unless someone raises a concrete use case.
