Tableau — Hard
Explanation
User-Based Row-Level Security (RLS) in Tableau restricts data access based on user identity. The correct approach involves using the USERNAME() function in a calculated field or data source filter, combined with a user-entitlement table. This method allows for dynamic and fine-grained control over data visibility. Incorrect options, such as separate workbooks or automatic enforcement, do not provide the same level of flexibility.
