Restricted views and data controls

Data protection in OpenFoundry is not only about authentication. It also needs controlled projections of data for different audiences and contexts.

Repository signals

The auth service includes explicit support for restricted views through:

  • handlers/restricted_views.rs
  • models/restricted_view.rs
  • migration history that mentions restricted views and CBAC-style controls

These signals suggest that OpenFoundry is already moving toward a layered data-protection model rather than a simple binary allow/deny gate.

Why this matters

Restricted views are especially useful for:

  • regulated or marked datasets
  • tenant-aware operational data
  • partial exposure to external partners
  • object-level and field-level semantics in ontology-driven apps
