Dear all,
I don't remember where but I think I have heard from a product webinar or AppianWord that you can apply security on a single row of a record. Please can someone confirm this? And if this is true, where can I configure this feature?
Thanks

In the past I thought the approach described in these comments, as well as in the playbook https://community.appian.com/w/the-appian-playbook/207/record-level-security-for-entity-backed-records#ExampleApp1 use to limit not only users from seeing the record instance on the record grid, but would also throw an error if they navigated to the record instance via url. I just tried this in 21.1 and it allowed me to view the record instance. Did something change?
Is there another approach that could be taken that would truly limit visibility to a record instance via an expression, and not just filter what is in the record grid list. If the user has a bookmark of the record link, or if the system has a record link outside of the record grid, then they can still hit the record.
I tried modifying the Default Filters in the example application with the instructions here: https://community.appian.com/w/the-appian-playbook/207/record-level-security-for-entity-backed-records under the Managing Global Viewers section as shown in the screenshot below.
When I view the record list from tempo/sites, the grid duplicates the cases. Considering that the entity backing the record has duplicates, I'm not surprised to see duplicates. But, based on the link in the playbook, it seemed like Appian had handled the duplication issue.
Am I missing something obvious?
