The VCF 9.0 Operations Access Control Guide describes how dashboard sharing and user access is managed:

Identity Broker Authentication (D):All external users must authenticate via the VCF Identity Broker, which integrates with Active Directory, LDAP, or other identity providers. Documentation states: “Identity Broker provides single sign-on and federation, ensuring users are authenticated consistently across VCF Operations and Automation services.”

Grant Access to Dashboard (E):After authentication, the administrator must explicitly grant access to the dashboard for the specified group. This ensures that only the intended users can view or interact with the dashboard.

Set Time-Bound Access (C):VCF Operations supports time-bound access policies. The documentation specifies: “Access can be granted with an expiration period, ensuring access is automatically revoked after the configured interval (for example, 90 days).” This aligns with the 3-month requirement.

Other options are not suitable:

Reports (A) only send static data, not interactive dashboard access.

Embedded code (B, F) bypasses access control and does not provide authentication or time-limited sharing, which violates the security requirement.

Thus, the correct three steps are: Use Identity Broker (D), Grant access to dashboard (E), and Configure 3-month access expiration (C).
