Tableau Desktop Specialist — Question 88

How should a Data Analyst implement row-level security to ensure secure access to a published data source for viewers and explorers?

Answer options

• A. Set up a separate dashboard for each department.
• B. Leverage User Filters in the dimension filter.
• C. Set up Data Source permissions.
• D. Leverage User Filters in the data source filter.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because leveraging User Filters in the data source filter directly controls the visibility of data at the row level based on user attributes. Option A is ineffective for security as it simply separates dashboards without controlling data access. Option B uses dimension filters, which do not apply at the row level, and Option C only addresses permissions, which do not enforce row-level security.
