Hiding a data set from the dataset list while still maintaining necessary access to the dashboard.
I have a dataset containing sensitive information that I want to use to build a visualization in OAC for users to access. I've designed my dashboard to restrict visibility so that each user can only see the data associated with their username in the dataset. However, to enable this functionality, I had to grant all users read access to the dataset.
The issue is that this also allows users to navigate to the dataset directly, where they could open it and see all employee information—something I cannot allow. I need a way to hide the dataset from the dataset list while still maintaining the necessary access for the dashboard to function properly.

Hiding to clean up the homepage is a good suggestion.
The ability to control what the users can see in a dataset — should be done with role-based filters.

However, it may also be useful to share a dataset and not have it show up on the homepage. Even if it is "hidden from the homepage" … it could still be used in other contexts — so you would still need to add role-based filters if the data in the dataset needs to be viewed differently by different users or groups of users.2 -
Very helpful explanation.
