Use Case
Users with the Viewer role have no access to most Sisense navigation features, in practice, they rarely see anything beyond the Analytics tab. This makes the navigation bar largely redundant for that audience.
This plugin is a good fit when you want to reduce visual noise by removing UI elements that Viewers can't interact with creates a cleaner, more focused experience.
It is recommended to use the Hide Nav for Viewers only when dashboards are embedded externally. See behaviors for viewers below.
