Security on multiple reports in one app
- 6 years ago
I eventually solved this by creating 2 workspaces, adding each report to its own workspace and restricting access to the apps built on the workspaces.
I've made 2 links available, one to the management-app and one to the general-app. Each person will get a "restricted" error on one of both links (on which one depends on their profile).
Thank you for the provided help!
Kind regards,

Hi nickyvv ,
Thank you for your quick reply.
That sounds like a good workaround, but to me it kind of defies the use of the app as management would have to go from the app to the workspace every time. Isn't there a solution that doesn't require them to leave the app?
Most of them have no experience at all with the workspace + navigating from app to workspace is quite tiresome.
Kind regards,
Jolien
Hi Jolien ,
You could assign contributor or member roles to the group of people (management). They can view all the reports in the workspace because of editing capability. And you could add other users (project managers) to a viewer role. Then add the group of people (management) in the security of the reports that you don't want users to view. In this way, project managers will get the error massage below in those reports.
It is a little complicated way. In Service, there is not an option can hide reports or make users not view reports directly. So, hope this can help you.
