  Currently you cannot apply access control to blocks themselves - however you can restrict access for the fields within the block. If you just need to restrict customers from reading certain data, this could be enough for you. Or there might be something more suitable depending on your specific usage - if you want to share more details on your setup here we can discuss.

  Hello Jess, thanks for the answare!! I really apreciate your work together with the other members of Payload Team, you are incredible!!!

  
  

  
  

  i tried to restrict the block field based on my access control rules, but I needed the field to have the same name, to avoid a large variation of data... anyway, I wasn't successful, my solution was to copy the field of blocks from the payload's official code and apply my rules there, that way, my configuration for blocks it is like:

  
  { type: "blocks", name: "fieldName", labels: {...}, admin: { components: { Field: createBlock({ condition: (args) => myConditionFunction(args) }) } }, }
  

  
  

  i really intresting to make a pull request to transform this functionality native
