Hi @ajinkayk6258253,

@raghavc gave you the right answer so you can approve it, but I thought I would a bit more information for context.

Here is the ACE (Access Control Entry) that you need to apply:

If you are unfamiliar with ACEs, you can find the user interface by going to Tools > Security > Permissions.

And here is the before and after:

BEFORE


AFTER  

One more thing: your question is about hiding the insights tab from a particular user but in general its is strongly recommended to use a user to identify a particular person or service, but a group to attach ACEs. You would then add users to groups based on which rights they need and what their role is within AEM. This is much cleaner, much more semantic and makes your configurations re-usable in the future 🙂

You can remove read access to the below path, this should hide the insights tab for the user.

/libs/dam/content/schemaeditors/forms/insights/items

 

As the path is marked internal, adding a new rendercondition might not be an option.

      You should not change anything inside /libs/

      So /libs/dam/content/schemaeditors/forms/insights/items is not an option.

       

      You should override in apps and handle through rendercondition with group renderer https://github.com/arunpatidar02/aem63app-repo/blob/master/jsp/grouprenderecondition.jsp

        As the node is marked as internal, it is not a good practice to overlay or override from a sustainable upgrade point . Updating ACL is still allowed on these path(/libs) and can be done using ACL tool for better management of user group.
