   • Write Access: Control who can view and modify data in the data source.

   • Allow individually selected users

5. From the Where should this policy be applied dropdown menu, select When selected by data owners, On all data sources, or On data sources. If you selected On data sources, finish the condition in one of the following ways:

   • tagged: Select this option and then search for tags in the subsequent dropdown menu.

Manually grant access

Read and write access can also be granted manually by a data owner. See the Manage data source members guide for details.

Additional global ABAC subscription policies

When you have multiple global ABAC subscription policies to enforce, create separate global ABAC subscription policies, and then Immuta will use boolean logic to merge all the relevant policies on the tables they map to.
