Editing Repository Access List - 17.2

When viewing a single data connection, you can edit the list of repositories that have access to the connection. Restricting repository access to a connection ensures that users logged into that repository cannot see or use the connection when adding data sources. For example, you may want to restrict users from connecting to a certain type of external data file.
