I’m sure everyone has seen the Disappearing TAB for the RCDC which is based on or rather controlled by a the actual object being viewed having a Boolean attribute set. This solution will work for some instances but has potential issues if the Boolean attribute is not defined and or is null.
Below is a solution that Dynamically Changes the Visibility of a TAB and its contents or individual sections within a TAB depending on what SET a User is a part of.
A custom attribute is still needed which is bound to the User Object Resource which has been given read permission to an MPR that is associated with a specific Set.
Example 1 shows how to hide a section within a TAB but not the whole TAB
Example 2 Shows how to hide an entire TAB and its contents.
Note: in both examples the attribute isHero is what actually controls the visibility of this section in the RCDC. As long as the permission granting MPR gives permission to this specific attribute, anyone within the requestor set associated with this MPR will be able to view this section or TAB on the users in the associated target set in the MPR.
