Data Category Visiblitiy in new Winter 15 Communities

How can I use permission sets to restrict data categories? When I restrict the specific categories I get an error. But when the permission for the data category is set to all the user can see everything. I want to restrict what parts of the data categories the customer sees by using permission sets. Why is this happening. The profile has none for the data category access.

Hi Matt,

Permission set will not restrict the access, it will open up.
To restrict the Data category access, you set the minimum required access on profile and those who wants more access, you can provide that with Permission set on user record.
(data category access can also be set on Role level)

Hope this will help!

Thanks,
Pratik
