App Permissions and Row Level Security

Hello all,   If someone has permission access to an app but they have not been added to any security roles for the underlying dataset, would they be able to view all data within the app?   Thanks...

    Hi. Once you have added RLS to a dataset, then the only viewers that will see visualizations are the people added in the dataset security menu. Otherwise they will see all the visualizations broken with an error.

    I'm clarifying again the word Viewers. When the user has build permissions or it's added as contributor, member or admin at the workspace, they will see it all without a rule even if you add them to the dataset security menu.

    I hope that make sense.
