Shared formulas

**Please note this idea was migrated to the Product Feedback Forum from older submission areas**

Designers cannot save formulas for shared use. This is problematic in two scenarios:
1. End users (our customers’ customers) are Designers
2. Data models are shared across multiple tenants (with row level security)

Without this the customer is forced to either manage hundreds of separate data models, which is not sustainable, or to remove all ability to save formulas, which is not acceptable for users.

The “Shared Formulas” feature should allow for permissioning; something similar to “limit sharing to users’ own groups” would work.

Hello.

This Idea has been implemented in the product!

Here is the documentation for it.

The linked documentation explicitly states that all users can modify the formulas. I want the data designer or dashboard creator to create formulas and share them, but not let every person with dashboard designer access have the ability to corrupt those formulas for all of the other users.

When sharing formulas, they can be accessed by all users. Access to shared formulas cannot be limited at the granular level.
