Restrict access to custom dashboard tab in Backoffice

Hello, following the information in this link: https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/Tutorials/Creating-a-Custom-Dashboard/

I've been able to setup a custom dashboard for our editors, however, I want to be able to restrict access/visibility for this tab and only allow/show it for certain Users.

To my question: Is there a way to hide/disable a custom dashboard tab depending on the Users role/email/what-ever

And if so, how would one go about implementing that?

Thanks

We can manage it in /config/Dashboard.config file.

Below is access node that can be applied at section or tab level to restrict the access.

Hope that helps.

Sadly, there is no longer a /config/Dashboard.config file anymore, atleast not in Umbraco 8 it would seem.

I appreciate the reply though, thanks buddy!
