    This sentence in the documentation isn't updated, we will fix that.

    See this section in the same doc, on how to use 'CustomData'.

Thanks for your replies, it's good to see the documentation will be updated.

 

I was able to get CustomData working with the latest api packages, so we can use that in conjunction with roles to do what we need to.

Hi jonharding, 

 

I'm trying to do the same but when I try to generate the token I'm getting this error:

 

Creating embed token for accessing dataset XXXXXXXX requries effective identity username to be identical to the caller's principal name


So I decided to test CUSTOMDATA() functionality but I'm not sure how it works.

 

Could you please provide a sample of the roles you have created and the code you have in your app (App Owns Data) ?

Regards.
