Am new to Microsoft Lists and trying to implement the library management system. Have prepared a list to show the book details using the 'From Excel' list. Need to restrict the permission based on the user role(admin, client).
For example, If a user needs to request a book, there might be a column to access for the user to send a request for the desired book. So that, an admin will get notified for the request and take action.
Similarly, from the list i created, i need to provide permission to the user to access only one column. The rest of the column can only be for view purposes.
Note: As i searched i found we can set permission like view, view, and edit, and stop sharing the list based on the roles of Members, Owners, and Visitors.
Could anyone please guide me on this?
Regards,

#Karthi,
It's not possible to configure column permission, the least permission is item-level. There is no column-level or view level permission.
Here are 2 possible solutions:
Make the target column read-only. Then develop another interface for the administrator to manage the data. For example, through SharePoint rest API, we can turn the column back to editable and post updates then immediately turn it to read-only.
Check Set List Column Read Only in SharePoint using PowerShell
How to update read only field
Hide the target column and make a calculated column then set its value equal to the target column. The user will only see those calculated columns, any updates on the target column will be reflected in calculated columns.

I'm kind of new to PBI and I'm looking if it's the right tool for my case.
I would like to use Power BI Embedded in a web application for our customer (where they're logged in) which do not have any Power BI account/licence.
The database on which the reports are based are on-premise so we're would use Analysis Service Live Connection to access them.
Each customer should have his own report.
Is it possible to use RLS in that case?
Does that mean we've to create a role for each of them?
What username should be given in the EffectiveIdentity? Is it 'free text' that is used by PBI to get the username in the DAX?
If each customer will have his own report, then why do you need RLS at all? Just make the report to show what the user is supposed to see. Or you want to have a single report (or set of reports), which is shared between the users and they should see only their data? I will assume it is the later one.
I will start with the last question - the effective identity is not a "free text". It must be a valid user name, having rights to access the data, as specified in the documentation:
The effective identity that is provided for the username property must be a Windows user with permissions on the Analysis Services server.
The you can define RLS in your Analysis Service model, by adding a "users security" table, where you specify which rows should be visible to each user. Define relationships between this users security table and other tables in the model, and then let RLS to filter the data in the security table. The relationships with the rest of the model will apply cascade filtering on the data, so only relevant rows will be visible to the user. See Implement row-level security in an Analysis Services tabular model for example.
So the answer of your second question is no, you don't need a separate role for each user, because the filtering is based on the username and for every user it filters the same thing the same way.
I have one Power BI file that needs to be embedded in the Power App Portal using Power BI embedded code (iFrame code). I am filtering the iFrame code by applying query parameter filter in the Embedded URL.
The issue is that the value of query parameter can be changed by any end-user who is aware of the value.
For example, if we are passing user id in query string, another user id who knows the values can also change the user id in the same query string.
My question is how to securly pass the parameter in the P-BI embedded? Is there any special encryption method so that the parameter value is encrypted at end user to avoid changing the user ID
You need to implement RLS (Row Level Security). That way, users logging in to view the iFrame will see only data he is supposed to view. You will have to configure roles in power bi-level to determine how data access is determined for each user.

I need to hide a page from a group of users, but I've read that there is no RLS-like service to do that. I found a "tip" to use a card and paint it white or transparent to hide the page contents. It would work fine for me, but here is my problem:
I have a table with page name and the e-mail of the users allowed to access its contents. I need to query that table, returning the page name when the e-mail equals to USERPRINCIPALNAME (DAX function), but I haven't found how to link these information.
I tried to create a column named "allowed", comparing the e-mail value with this DAX function, but PowerBI does not allow its use (it can only be used with Measures). Then, I tried to create a measure comparing both values, but I cannot access the table value (it's not displayed in the list of available options).
What can I do? Any clues?
Regards
There is in fact RLS feature with Power BI that can be used to restrict data access for given users.
Refer: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-admin-rls
I know that it's possible to personalize components. Is there also a way to personalize content items that are located in the Sitecore tree in a similar way?
Users and roles cannot be queried in sitecore since they are not items (see this question, same goes for roles).
Unfortunately (?) you cannot grant write access to the __Security field via the Security Editor. You could create a custom field type that queries the roles.
If you actually want to set the access rights, you could create a processor in the saveUI pipeline that transfers the data of your field into the __Security field (you need to use SecurityDisabler). Use the framework functionality if possible so you don't have to construct the access rights string yourself.
We have a company program designed to help us get control over data. It has feature to group all the application of one Client. If I want to take a look at them I click on the Client and I see a list of all applications made for him. Take a look at the picture below:
I was wondering if Microsoft Access can do the same? If yes where should I start looking?
I did some internet search and no solution found.
That is built in, and it is called Subdatasheet. You have relationships properly set between Clients and Order, for instance, when you open the Clients table you will see such small "+" allowing to view the Orders of the current client. You may have to set the Subdatasheet Name property of table Clients to "Orders" in this case.
If you want to work with forms, you can build a continuous from for Clients, then one for Orders, then insert the Orders subform in the Footer of the Clients form. Access might tell you you can't do this, just ignore, it works.
In Access that would simply be a continuous form with a filter. Typically opened from a list of clients, setting a filter for the applications of the selected client.
Unless I'm misunderstanding the question.
