Hiding tab in the access point

Anonymous — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

I have a dashboard ABC with 6 tabs. We have about 200 users accessing ABC in the Access point. We want to hide one of the tab to about 100 users in Access point. What is the best way to implement this. Users will be logging into the access point using windows AD.

Please note these users don't access the QVW file. This questions is more of the users access to the dashboard in the access point.

1st Workaround - In Tab Sheet Properties, in condition add all 100 users by using OSUser function. Its traditional way. Faster way if you want implement immediately.

2nd Workaround - Get access grid security design in Access or excel. And in script embed this access control. This you need to design from core script.

3rd Workaround - Get all AD user list in excel, add excel in QVW. and pass reference of excel in to sheet properties condition.

Hi,

maybe it's much easier to add users to 2 groups like "FULL_Access" & "LIMITED_Access" and then publish 2 versions of the app via Loop'n'Reduce?

Or y can try Data Reduction via Section Access
