If your questions share a common model, you can enable [model caching](../data-modeling/models.md#model-caching) instead.
## Caching doesn't work with data sandboxing
Just something to keep in mind: if someone in a [sandboxed](../permissions/data-sandboxes.md) group views a table, Metabase will skip the cached results and query the table directly, returning only the results the person is allowed to see.

You can can't use static embeds with [data sandboxes](../permissions/data-sandboxes.md), [drill-through](https://www.metabase.com/learn/questions/drill-through) or [auditing tools](../usage-and-performance-tools/audit.md) because signed JWTs don't create user sessions (server-side sessions). For those features, check out [interactive embedding](./interactive-embedding.md).
