For example: restrict only if location is UK OR department is IT

How can i differentiate between the two flows? suppose someone indeed configured OR relationship between the restrictions of a role

You can use workflows or scripts for advanced logic.

05/10/2023, 10:03 PM@Edgar Valdés how do you prevent users with such restrictions imposed by scripts to not be able to get the data through reports/saved searches/workbooks/datasets without removing their permission to do create/edit them? That's our issue when we implemented restrictions via WF/SS2.X.

05/10/2023, 10:29 PMWhen a single job position must have this mixed restrictions, we simply create two or more roles for the user, each role as restricted as possible. It's a pita to maintain such roles, but it's better for us.
