User Attributes

This section covers how to set user attributes. User attributes are how users are assigned permissions that control their access to data (using access controls).

To set a user attribute on a user, go to Workspace Settings, then go to Team Members

To set a user attribute, click on User Attributes, and set the attribute on the user. This example sets the user attribute department to Engineering on this user.

Now that this user's department attribute is set, their permissions will be determined by that (and any other attributes) set on that user.

For example, since the user's attribute for department has been set to Engineering, not one of the allowed options (Executive, Finance, Marketing) this user will not have access to anything restricted by this access grant.

For example, this user will not have access to this email field because the field has the pii_access access grant as one of the required_access_grant selections.

For more information on how to apply access grants and filters, look at the documentation on access controls.
