This release see's the refinement of User ↔ Org permissions based on the requested collection.

Certain collections should allow the user to request any ascendants items, like queries for example. If a user has permission on an Org further down the tree, traditionally they could not  see the Default Orgs queries (ie, the default queries supplied in the program). From 3.3.2 onward, users have the ability to see their ascendants items for: dashboards, discovery_scan_options, fields, files, groups, queries, reports, roles, rules, scripts, summaries, widgets. Users can still only see their specified Orgs (and their descendants) for applications, baselines, baselines_policies, buildings, clouds, clusters, collectors, connections, credentials, devices, discoveries, discovery_log, floors, integrations, ldap_servers, licenses, locations, logs, networks, orgs, rack_devices, racks, rooms, rows, tasks, users.

NOTE - ascendants does not mean all  items. Only their direct "in-line" parent, grandparent, etc.

This is not considered a change to access, more making it what it should always have been. For more information, see Users, Roles and Orgs - how does it work?

Don't forget you have granular control over what users can see and do using Roles in Enterprise.
