Using multiple permission rules to add access

The ability to add multiple permission rules is a very powerful feature (available on Pro and Team plans) that allows for increased customization to your app.

I would like my user to be able to be able to view all records

This rule called ‘team permissions’ allows the user to view all records. However, I have set limitations on which fields they can read. I’ve also disabled the ability to update and create new records, since users should not be able to update other people’s records:

Remember - Permission rules GIVE access, they don’t take it away. So adding an additional rules, gives additional access.

Using multiple permission rules, in combination w/ filters and multiple list pages can empower you to achieve this:
