What is Row Level Security Per Person?
Row level security limits the rows seen by a user based on a set of criteria. Two users will see the same fields but different counts based on their security assignments.
Step 1 - Create your security assignments
This can be an excel you upload into your workbook or a data source you connect your workbook to. At the very least, the security assignments must include (1) Active Directory ID Current and (2) key field that you want to assign.
