How do object data inherit security permissions?

• A. Object data inherit dataset permissions from their backing datasets.
• B. Objects have independent permissions.
• C. Permissions are defined per object and can't be inherited.
• D. Permissions are defined by the Data Connection.

Answer: (A)

Object data inherit security permissions through the datasets they come from. In Foundry, the access controls you set on a backing dataset determine who can view or operate the derived object data, so permissions propagate from the source to its dependents. This ensures consistent access across related data and simplifies management—changes to a dataset’s permissions automatically affect the object data derived from it. The other ideas—having independent permissions, defining permissions per object without inheritance, or permissions being dictated by the Data Connection—don’t reflect how inheritance works in this context.
