Step 2 - Access can be given to the entire account, for a specific property or for a specific views. If you have multiple properties in an account and want to replicate data for all the views in those properties, then add user at the account level. Otherwise, if data has to be replicated to only one view, then give access at view level. Make sure you are in the right property/view if you want to give access at property level or view level.
