Sharing private information solution
Hello,
HR want to use a third party to upload a csv (data source), create and convert a PDF with password protection and email it to n/many people inside the organisation. This seems like a messy and security nightmare..
I’d like to try and propose a native O365 solution if there is one.
One idea I had was use item level permissions in a list to display the secret information to the individual.
Is this an option or not (a good one)?
Can you think of any other better ways to do this?

- Well, it really depends on the number of times you are going to break security at the item level in SPO and also how do you plan to implement all this
- Thank you. Item level may or may not be what I mean, but what I mean is for the individual to only be able to see a list row where they exist or “where the person column = themself” etc
If this is item level permissions and it can be achieved programmatically then the number of items shouldn’t be a big problem. I’m not talking too many rows here.
?- if 'security by obfuscation' is enough, you could just put the data in a list, and configure the default view to filter on person column value = [me]
