Permissions vs content access

Hello Looker Team I am confused between user roles vs content access. Why they both are different? For example: part 1: - If I have created a role:-marketing role = marketing models + developer permissions This role means that a user can only create looks, dashboards, see data from marketing models and play with it, (eg: access data, create, see lookml dashboards etc). I assigned that role to ‘marketing’ user group Part 2: There is content folder called ‘marketing’ which stores all the marketing content (eg: looks, dashboard), and on that folder I only give ‘view’ access to marketing user group.  Part 1 and part 2 contradicts each other. On one side I am telling users to access marketing models and create content and on the other side I am telling the same users just to ‘view’ content in ‘marketing’ folder Can someone please clarify this confusion Thanks a lot! Raman

Looker mobile app (passcode or fingerprint?)

Is it possible for admins to force the use of passcode or fingerprint in the looker mobile app? Is the passcode/fingerprint feature even available? I think the app is great, but feel somewhat uneasy that one can access the app and the data without a final verification step (thinking of cases where a phone might be stolen or left unattended).
