Is it possible to create permissions that prevent someone from referencing a field

[ayano]

Is it possible to create permissions that prevent someone from referencing a field in the Incident table?
For example, is it possible to set it so that a certain user cannot see the Description field of an Incident?

Hi @ayano ,

Please make a clarity on the given requirement ,

1. ACL - Controls data access at the server level,Prevents unauthorized users from reading, writing, or creating field data and Security – always use if you want to truly restrict data access.

2. UI Policy - UI Policy to Hide the Field Visually.

This involves using Field-level ACLs for security, and optionally, UI Policies or Client Scripts to improve the user experience.

Thanks

Hi @ayano ,

yes create a field level ACL (with read acl user will not be able to see the field)
with write the field will be read only for them

as you have asked for incident 

you can configure the acl like below

for more details on ACL you can refer this video

alternatively you can use deny unless acl if you want to deny to everyone except a specific user.

Hi @Chaitanya ILCR san,
Thank you for your answer.
I'd like to ask you more details.

Specifically, what I want to do is as follows.
Can this be implemented with one ACL record? Or do I need to create two ACLs?

- Display records created by a specific member of the Incident table.
- Do not display the description field of the records.

Best Rgards,

Hi @ayano ,

2 ACLs would be required. one is for table level and one is for description field

please share your business requirement in detail we will help you with ACL configuration part
