So i have 3 fields in a record table namely A,B,C and also 3 groups namely A,B,C. So my doubt here is, is it possible to set security to the fields separately. 

For example if i place a user in group A, then i should see only the A field and the other B and C fields should not be visible to me.

If it is possible, can anyone guide me how i can achieve it.

    You can use the field level security in record 

    If you are in appian older version you can use the isUserMemberOfGroup() function to check if the logged-in user belongs to a specific group and assign security with simple if() condition.

    I Am using the community edition which is i think the latest version. I tried using the "Field-level security" option and gave certain groups as security but when i added a user in that particular group it didn't work all the 3 fields were visible even though for a user from a particular group i allowed only a certain field to be visible.

    After adding the user to the group, have them log out and log back in, as some systems only apply permission changes upon a new session. Also, make sure the user is not part of a nested other group that may not be recognized.
