For example, user A can see rows 1 to 10, while user B can only see rows 11 to 20.Since there is only one underlying document, it seems a bit difficult to have different people see different content. Is there any feature similar to views that can achieve this?

Hi @gulixiang,

I don’t believe there’s currently any feature that allows showing different views of sheets to different users.

If you have any new insights or ideas on this, and are able to contribute, that would be fantastic!

Thanks,
