Hi @achourey  
if you are using QS without IAM, i would suggest to assigne each user to a group. Therefore you only need to manage the group access to single assets.

@ErikG , I am using IAM also, in this case where do I have to create the group in QS or at IAM level.

Hi @achourey,  
It’s been a little while since we last heard from you. Was royyung’s post helpful regarding your original request or do you have any remaining questions?

If we do not hear back within the next 3 business days, I’ll go ahead and mark as the solution. If you have any further questions past that, feel free to create a new topic for discussion and link this post for additional information.

Thank you!
