A Tableau Next Consultant has shared a workspace with a group of users and granted...

Tableau Next applies both asset-sharing permissions and platform permission sets. Granting Editor access through workspace sharing cannot elevate a user's capabilities beyond those granted by the administrator. Salesforce explicitly states that sharing doesn't override permissions set by the admin and that a user who lacks the permission set required to edit Tableau Next assets cannot edit an asset even when granted Editor access.

Therefore, C is correct.

Workspace-level access is designed to simplify administration. Users and Analytics Groups can be granted Viewer or Editor access to a workspace, with appropriate access applying to contained assets subject to underlying security and permission requirements. Consequently, B is incorrect as a general explanation.

Option A is also incorrect. Workspace owners can share assets subject to their own permissions, but inability of the affected user to edit is not because dashboards universally require a separate owner-assigned Editor permission.

Think of Tableau Next authorization as multiple gates: license - > Tableau Next permission set - > asset sharing - > underlying data access. A more permissive setting at a downstream sharing layer cannot bypass a restrictive upstream administrative permission.
