Improvements to Infrastructure & Platforms charts in custom dashboard

I set the following conditions for any user.

* For the group to which the user belongs, set host A in Infrastructure DFQ in Areas of Groups settings

* In the widgets of Dashboard X published to this user, I selected Infrastructure & Platforms as Data Source and set host A & B as Filter.

When the user sees at dashboard X, he can see performance metrics for the host A & B. I think this is a bug and should be modified to show only for host A.

    Thanks again for your feedback!

    Related to potential abnormal behaviors, it's better to open a support case to be reviewed since they have a specific triage path different than Aha Ideas, which should be kept to collect requests for improvements or new features.

    We will keep this Aha Idea for a future consideration to review improvements on this area.

    Hello Martin,

    I didn't understand your answer.

    When a user "o-kabashima_robot-shop-admin@nec.com" belongs to "robot-shop Admin" group, the user can see performance metrics for the "robot-shop" and "smax-w" hosts in a dashboard ("smax-w" host performance metrics should not be visible). I think it is problem. So, I didn't understand your answer.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Have you noticed that the RBAC setting in one screenshot scopes down access to one specific Host through FQDN, but the other RBAC setting scopes to a Zone, might that be the source of the mix priviledge?

    Hello,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention! In this example, was Host B also attributed to any Group?

    Would you, please, send some screenshots as well? It will be very helpful for the investigation.
