`TEAM-DASHBOARDS:READACCESSPOLICY` and `TEAM-DASHBOARDS:UPDATEACCESSPOLICY` apply only together with `TEAM-DASHBOARDS:READ` and `TEAM-DASHBOARDS:UPDATE` on the same dashboard. A user can view a dashboard's access policy only if they can read the dashboard, and edit it only if they can edit the dashboard. To administer policies without dashboard access, use `ACCESS-POLICIES:READALL` and `ACCESS-POLICIES:UPDATEALL`. See [Overriding access policies](https://coralogix.com/docs/user-guides/aaa/access-control/policies.md#overriding-access-policies).
