I have a question: Does the semantic layer distinguish between internal company analysis and external customer analysis? Is there any difference between the two for the semantic layer? Or does it depend on the modeling method?

👋 Thanks for your message - someone from the Lightdash support team will get back to you asap. Feel free to add any additional context to the thread here in the meantime (screenshots, app version if you're self-hosting etc.).

There is no formal distinction - but metrics can be assigned specific business areas to split things up. As you suggested you can also split things up by modelling in a specific way in dbt and you can easily assign different permissions to different users so that they can only interact with specific models. We do also offer embedding if you want to make part of your Lightdash app available for external customers to use.
