- You cannot override permissions for users with **Org Admin Role**
- A more specific permission with lower permission level will not have any effect if a more general rule exists with higher permission level. For example if "Everyone with Editor Role Can Edit" exists in the ACL list then **John Doe** will still have Edit permission even after you have specifically added a permission for this user with the permission set to **View**. You need to remove or lower the permission level of the more general rule.

Permissions on dashboards and folders **do not** include permissions on data sources. A user with `Viewer` role

We hope to add permissions on data sources in a future release. Until then **do not** view dashboard permissions as a secure
way to restrict user data access. Dashboard permissions only limits what dashboards & folders a user can view & edit not which
data sources a user can access nor what queries a user can issue.
