Row level security in Spotfire when using data from Sharepoint Online

Hello,

We have been trying to create a dashboard in Spotfire 7.11 whose data source would be a SharePoint list. Is there a way we can implement row level restrictions to restrict the data based on the user who has logged in Suppose, below is teh sample data that is pulled from Sharepoint:

Date Department Budget1-Jan-19 HR 200001-Jan-19 Finance 300001-Jan-19 IT 400001-Feb-19 HR 250001-Feb-19 Finance 350001-Feb-19 IT 45000

If a user from HR department opens and refreshes the dashboard, then he should be able to see only the 2 rows that belong to HR department.

Please advice.

Thanks.

Hi Renu

This can be achieved using another datatable which would have user access details, say Security table. Then you have to create a relationship between the security table and the sharepoint data. This security table should come from datatabse so that you can use "%CURRENT_USER% to get the logged in user.

If the database is not an option, then this can be achieved using the ironpython script.
