1. Selective Sharing: Users can share specific rows or data from a sheet without revealing the entire sheet, maintaining data privacy and security.

2. Real-Time Updates: As the underlying data in the main sheet changes, the Dynamic View updates in real time, ensuring stakeholders always have the most current information.

Dynamic View is particularly useful in complex projects or processes where multiple parties need access to a central source of truth without compromising on the confidentiality of the overall data set. It’s about providing the right information to the right people at the right time, enhancing both transparency and control.
