I see that others have solved this with a combination of Impala UDF + View by grabbing the effective_user() and then looking up roles when a query is executed. Any other options to solve ths?

I need to show/hide/mask data based on user role. Is it possible to setup a role and associate with a policy where column level data will be masked based on the effective_user's role? So if userA is a member of roleX he can view the sensitive data, but userB is not a member of roleX so he sees the masked data. Same select statement from two different users returns different results based solely on role.

I have an external Impala table defined. I also have a view that selects a subset of columns from the table. Can i grant access to the view only but not the table or underlying data?
