What effect do row access policies have on the creation of dashboards concerning user data visibility?

Question

Options

• ARow access policies offer unrestricted data visibility.
• BRow access policies don't influence data visibility in dashboards.
• CThey limit data visibility based on user privileges.
• DRow access policies impact dashboard creation negatively.

• A
  4% (2)
• B
  2% (1)
• C
  94% (48)

Explanation

Row access policies enforce data security at the row level, meaning each user only sees the rows they are authorized to view - so when a dashboard queries data, the results are automatically filtered based on the logged-in user's privileges (option C). Option A is wrong because row access policies exist specifically to restrict visibility, not remove restrictions. Option B is wrong because these policies directly affect what data surfaces in dashboards and reports - they are not passive. Option D is wrong because the impact is a deliberate security feature, not a negative side effect on dashboard functionality itself.

Memory tip: Think of row access policies as a "bouncer" on each row - users only get past the rows they have clearance for, regardless of what dashboard they're viewing.
