Data Fabric Chatbot Security

Question

Hi, I am new to using the interface component a!dataFabricChatField. ( I've used record chat component, and that worked as expected. ) 
 With Data Fabric chatbot, how should we implement security? We only want the users using the chatbot to have access to recordType records that pertain to their company. I tried using the instructions field in the chatbot component to specify which company the logged in user belongs to, but that did not work either. 
 What is/are the best to accomplish that? 
 Thanks.

You can use the following Appian capabilities to setup security for your record data. No need to configure this in the chatbot: 
 
 Object security : Use groups and role maps on your record types to define which users have access to see these objects 
 Record level security : A llows you to determine who can see which records, so you can configure more granular access control. 
 Field-level security : Field-level security allows you to specify who can see which fields in your record type.

Instead of instructions ,you need to use the showWhen parameter in the a!dataFabricChatField(). You can add condition to check whether user is part of group/company to securely show/hide the chatbot depending on their role.
