### Data source permissions
Permissions on dashboards and folders **do not** include permissions on data sources. A user with `Viewer` role
can still issue any possible query to a data source, not just those queries that exist on dashboards he/she has access to.
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.

You can assign permissions to folders and dashboards. The default user role-based permissions can be removed and replaced with specific teams or users enabling more control over what a user can see and edit.
