Restrict data for a user after logging in

MeJulie — Mon, 02 Aug 2021 10:40:56 GMT

Hi community,

I try to find a way to restrict data in a dashboard in a way that a user after logging in via userident just can see the data that belongs to himself/herself. I already read about RLS but as I understood it so far it is not exactly what I need because you can add user to groups but I don't have groups, I have just several users with their own personal view they need to access and they shouldn't see the data of someone else.

Do you have any suggestions how I can achieve this?

Thanks a lot.

You posted in the Custom Visuals section. Are you planning to implement RLS in your custom visual? Usually RLS is applied to the data model and as a visual developer you don't need to care about that aspect.

Sorry, I am new in this forum and didn't really know where to post it. Indeed, I want to apply it to the data model.

Find articles and videos about RLS, and then start with a small project to test it out
