Google announced in April 2015 support for BigQuery row level security permissions.
Could anyone point me at any documentation or examples outlining how this feature may be used in practice ?
I understand this is similar to a question answered previously: How do I use row-level permissions in BigQuery?
However I was unsure if the answer regarding views was the new row level feature or not.
Yes, the answer you've linked to is the way to grant row-level permissions in BigQuery. If you want to give different views to different users based on who is accessing, check out this question: How do I give different users access to different rows without creating separate views in BigQuery?.
