Which feature would you use to securely control who can view specific records within an Appian app?

• A. Record-level security
• B. Public access
• C. Global read permission
• D. Anonymous session

Answer: (A)

The main idea is controlling access at the individual-record level. Record-level security lets you specify who can view each specific record, rather than applying a blanket rule to all records or to anonymous users. By configuring permissions for a record—granting Read only to certain users or groups—you ensure sensitive data stays visible only to those authorized, even within the same record type. This granular approach is essential for per-record privacy and security within an Appian app. Options that imply public access, global read, or anonymous sessions would not provide the targeted per-record visibility control you need.
