    Categories can be referenced under this attribute. This can limit the visibility / execution.

    Most application scenarios require category and access control related visibility.

    The logic of the evaluation is as follows:

    1. If at least one category is specified, the object must be an instance of that category. Otherwise, no evaluation of the category are carried out

    2. If at least one user group is specified, the current user must be a member of at least one of these user groups

    3. If at least one Access Control List is specified, the user must have the View permission in the Access Control List

    4. If at least one condition component is specified, at least one condition must apply.

    If this logic is not sufficient, a differentiated logic can be configured via the condition components.
