Roles & Policies

Skyflow’s governance engine lets you create roles for each of your data consumers - human users or downstream applications. You can attach granular policies to each role that define which data that role has access to, in what format, and subject to which conditions. The Admin role has a single policy attached (shown below) which enables data consumers with the Admin role to read all columns in the Payments table in plain text.
