Only showing data applicable to the person logged in (WorkApps?)

Hi,

I am new to using WorkApps. I am in the process of rolling out a global solution impacting ~1000 project managers. I want to keep them away from the main data sheet, limiting access.

I think/ hope I can achieve a WorkApp solution just giving them the details they need to update on Project progress. Is there any way of creating a report, which will only show the data applicable to the person logged in? I know I can create reports and logic to only show projects managed by a project manager but I don't want to create ~1000 reports to start off with.

Any help here would be appreciated.

    Forget that, sorry.

    Just figured out I can create a report to filter by 'Current user' and doesn't specifically need to be a name. I can them hopefully link this to WorkApps, giving individuals a landing page to just the information they need.
