Which method is most commonly used to restrict access to dashboards in Qualtrics?

The most commonly used method to restrict access to dashboards in Qualtrics is user attributes. This approach allows for a more tailored access control mechanism, where different users can have specific permissions based on their attributes, roles, or groups. For instance, administrators can define user attributes such as department, user role, or project affiliation, which can then be leveraged to grant or restrict access to particular dashboards. This method is efficient, as it enables dynamic and context-based access without the need to manage individual passwords or codes for each user.

Additionally, user attributes support better scalability. As new users are added or roles change within an organization, their access can automatically adjust based on their associated attributes, reducing the administrative burden. This makes it an effective solution in large organizations where managing individual passwords or codes would be cumbersome.

In contrast, while password protection and dashboard codes can provide a level of security, they often lack the flexibility and scalability that user attributes offer. IP address filtering can also limit access, but it is generally less commonly implemented due to the nature of mobile workforces and varying network conditions. User attributes, therefore, stand out as the most comprehensive and efficient method for access control in dashboards within the Qualtrics platform.
