Can I set permissions in Bika to show or hide specific views based on member roles?

You can achieve view-based data isolation in Bika in two ways:

  1. Using Mirrors: Create different views in your database with the specific fields you want to show.

Then, create a mirror, select the view, and assign members who can access it. This effectively isolates data by view.

  1. Using the “Member” Field in Views: You can filter data based on the current viewer or their sub-members. This method works as long as each record has an assigned member.
