Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Entity permissions
Entity permissions with the 'Owner' access type restrict record-level operations (read, write, delete) to only the record owner. This configuration ensures that a case is only visible to the user who created it. Option D is incorrect because column-level permissions control visibility of individual columns, not rows; they cannot hide entire records. Page permissions (A) control access to pages, not records. Web roles (C) define user groups and permissions but do not enforce owner-based filtering.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Page permissions
Why it's wrong here
Page permissions control access to entire pages, not record-level data. Therefore, they cannot be used to restrict visibility of individual cases.
- ✓
Entity permissions
Why this is correct
Entity permissions with the 'Owner' access type allow restricting records to only the record owner. This is the correct configuration for showing cases only to the user who created it.
- ✗
Web roles
Why it's wrong here
Web roles define user groups and assign permissions but do not provide data-level filtering based on record ownership.
- ✗
Column-level permissions
Why it's wrong here
Column-level permissions restrict which columns are visible or editable, but they do not hide entire records. They cannot be used to make cases visible only to the owner.
