Quick BI:Mode 1: Authorization based on combined conditions

Last Updated:Aug 31, 2023

If you want to allow users to view data of specific fields, you can enable the row-level permission management feature and grant users row-level permissions. Quick BI provides the following authorization modes based on row-level permissions: authorization based on combined conditions and tag-based authorization. If a small number of members exist in the workspace, you can perform authorization based on combined conditions. This topic describes how to perform authorization based on combined conditions.

Prerequisites

A dataset is created. For more information, see Create a dataset.

Entry point

Log on to the Quick BI console. Then, perform the steps that are shown in the following figure to grant users row-level permissions on datasets on the Workbench tab.
