explanation for non-techies**
Imagine you're in charge of a large library. In this library, there are many different sections, each with its own set of books. However, not everyone should have access to every section. For instance, children might only be allowed in the children's section, while researchers might have access to more specialized areas.
In the world of Power Apps, which is a tool used to build custom apps for businesses, something similar is happening. There's a new feature that allows administrators to control who can see certain "views" based on their role, much like deciding who can enter which section of the library. These "views" are essentially different ways of looking at the data stored in the app, similar to how different sections of the library contain different types of books.
This new feature, which became widely available on August 15, 2025, means that administrators can decide which views are visible to users based on their security roles. So, if someone is assigned a specific role, they will only see the views that are relevant to them, just like how a librarian might guide a visitor to the section of the library that matches their interests or needs.
No immediate action is required from users or administrators regarding this update. It's simply a new tool available to help manage access more effectively, ensuring that everyone sees only what they need to see, much like ensuring library visitors only access the sections relevant to them.
