Allow the Key Metrics and Audience Segmentation widgets to be hidden for view-only users #8243

Open techanvil opened 9 months ago

Feature Description

At present, the Key Metrics widget can be hidden for an individual admin user by toggling a switch in Settings. However, view-only users don't have access to Settings, so cannot hide the widget.

The first iteration of Audience Segmentation will take the same approach.

We need to determine a mechanism that allows the widgets to be hidden for view-only users and apply it to both features.

One possibility could be to provide a cut down Settings area for view-only users which only has these switches (and perhaps some read-only visibility of other settings that the view-only user can see).

However, we could take another route for example changing the flow to allow an admin to override the view-only settings.

I've moved this back to Triage as the Feature Description suggests a yet to be determined, non-trivial UX change is needed, this may require PM and UX input and signoff.
