Hiding Dataset from end users?
I have a Pro License and an App Workspace with Premium licensing applied to it. I need to distribute a report in my organization, but I do not want end users to be able to view or download the dataset at all. I see no options for this... either by publishing an app or by adding users to the workspace.
Is my only option to cobble together a dashboard from a multi tab report and share it? Or set up everything as direct query?
Please tell me I am missing some secret setting to restrict access to datasets in apps and app workspaces.
I kmow I can hide columns in a report, but this does nothing to the dataset... right?
Hi Anonymous
From your understanding if you let the users get access to the data via an App, they will not be able to view the underlying dataset. Because when they view it from an App it is Read-Only and they can only see the Dashboards and Reports.
When you say they access the dataset how would they do this if they got the report via an App?

Hi guys,
not sure, how was this achieved? is it through workspace access control or is there other way to achieve this? I want to give our users contibutor rights but hide/do not allow download of the dataset, is that possible?
