RLS - Only apply RLS to certain visuals

Hi all,

 

Is it possible to restrict the use of RLS to only a certain visuals? I have the following page:

here i can switch between the countries in the "Country" filter - but i also have benchmark of all countries in the visual below. 

 

What i want is that everyone can see their benchmark, but i only want country A to see country A and Country B to see country B in the first two visuals. 

 

How can this be implemented?

RLS is applied to tables in your data model, not to visuals. 

 

One standard approach is to have a data model with RLS and protectable information, and a mirror data model without RLS and with the protectable information removed. Then each of these data models can feed different visuals.
