+# Fixing permissions issues
+This troubleshooting guide has you covered if you've [connected your database][connecting-database] to Metabase, set up [groups][groups] for new people, and granted [data permissions][data-permissions] and [collection permissions][setting-collection-permissions] to those groups, but:
+
+  - [A person in multiple groups can access a table that you want to restrict](#a-person-in-multiple-groups-can-access-a-table-that-you-want-to-restrict)
+  - [A person who needs to access the SQL editor can't](#a-person-who-needs-to-access-the-sql-editor-cant)
+  - [A person can view collections that reference data you want to restrict](#a-person-can-view-collections-that-reference-data-you-want-to-restrict)
+
+## A person in multiple groups can access a table that you want to restrict
+
+**Root cause:** This person is a member of multiple [groups][groups], in which case Metabase grants the *most permissive* level of access across all the groups in which they're a member.
+
+If they're a member of two groups — one which grants [Unrestricted][unrestricted] access to a database or table and another that grants [No self-service][no-self-service] access — that person will have full unrestricted access.
+
+**Steps to take:**
+
+1. In the **People tab** of the **Admin Panel**, take a look at which groups the person is in.
+2. Either remove the person from the group with wider permissions, or adjust that group's data permissions to grant them no-self service access to the table you want restricted.
+
+Remember that everyone is a member of the **All Users** group; this is why we recommend you revoke permissions from the **All users** group, and create new groups to selectively apply permissions to your data sources.
+
+## A person who needs to access the SQL editor can't
+
+**Root cause:** The person currently has either **No self-service** or [Granular][granular] access to a database. To give someone access to the [native SQL editor][native-query-editing], you must grant **Unrestricted** access to the database as a whole. 
+
+**Steps to take**:
+
+1. In the **Admin Panel**'s **Permissions tab**, change the group's permissions to **Unrestricted** at the database level.
+
+## A person can view collections that reference data you want to restrict
+
+{% include plans-blockquote.html %}
+
+**Root cause:** Since Metabase operates with two types of permissions — data permissions and collection permissions — even if you've granted a user group no self-service access to a database or table, they can still view saved questions and dashboards that draw on that database, as long as those questions and dashboards live in a collection they have access to. Unless a user group's access to a given database is set to “block," they’ll be able to view any saved question based on that data if they have access to the collection it’s saved in.
+
+**Steps to take:**
+
+1. If you're running [Metabase Pro or Enterprise Edition](https://www.metabase.com/pricing), you can block group access to an entire database. This means that if you've blocked a group's access to a database, members of that group will not ever seen any data from this database, regardless of their permissions at the Collection level. 
+2. In the **Admin Panel**'s **Permissions tab**, change data permissions for your user group to **Block** and save your changes.
+3. Using an incognito window, log in as the person in question to confirm that they can no longer view saved questions or dashboards that include information from the blocked database.
+
+Keep in mind that if a person belongs to another group that does have data access, that setting will take precedence, and their access will not be blocked.
