Object level security and q & a visual

Hi,

 

Have a report which built against dataset with object level security and when try and include q & a visual within it, it says acn't as if by design that q & visual and object level security mutaully exclusive.

 

Is this the case, are there any plans to allow reports with object levle security to make use of the q & a visual.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Get message below that not supported and we have object level security on the datasets i.e. we have certain columns hidden to certain users but even if admin and try and use the q & a in such a report with object level security get message below.

 

Thanks
