Security rules

Good morning,

can somebody explain in a simple way how to manage different users' access to app?

For example, if i have user A,B,C and a stream 'TEAM' with three apps: APP Sales, App Purchase and App Management.

How can i do if i want to give access to --> user A to APP Sales and App Purchase;

                                                          user B to App Purchase and App Management;

                                                          user C to App Management?

And if I want to give access to single pages of an App?

Thanks.

You can use Section Access to limit user access to data within an application or the application itself.  However, if you are trying to hide applications from users, Custom Properites  is the method I would use.

To customize security rules the way you  describe, you should use Custom Properties ( tutorial ).

We only limited access to the applications within a stream, not individual sheets.

Thanks. Are you sure that there isn't something to write in the script area to limiti Access? 

Like: ACCESS, NAME.....

Thanks.

In a nutshell, you can use Section Access when you want to show the same App to everyone but you want to limit access to specific data. For example if Bob needs to see only the data where dimension 'Agent' is filtered on 'Bob' you can to write ---> 'ACCESS, NAME'

and then 

LOAD *..... where AGENT=BOB,; 

and then all the rest?

Did i understood well?

Yes, that is how Section Access is used.
