This can be done with no coding. Go to Lightning App Builder via 'Edit Page' option, select your component and in the properties panel on the right, specify the condition under 'Set Component Visibility'. See below screenshot for clarity:

Also, FYI: Winter 19 release extends this feature beyond Record and User fields by allowing Custom and Standard User Permissions as well (not Permission Sets).

  • I tried with the above solution that you provided by editing the page and providing the value as System Administrator but still this component is showing to other profiles also.Please guide.

  • You could have up to 10 filters and set a combination of AND/OR conditions around them as well. And you are right, visibility filters aren’t supported for individual tabs inside the Tabs out-of-the-box standard component, but can be set for components housed within those tabs. If you want to show/hide the tabs along with the components, I am afraid you must resort to custom component via lightning:tabset and lightning:tab. Here is more info about 'Set Component Visibility': help.salesforce.com/…

There are 2 ways

  1. Using Lightning Pages Activation: Whenever you create a lightnining pages you can make it available to certain profile and apps. This will make sure that the only certian profiles can see the page which has that components embedded. enter image description here

  2. Using Lightning component Visibility: Add that lightning component into all pages. Then in the visibility session of lightning component add visible only if profile is some certain profile.

We can use the dynamic forms and then can set the component visibility of our LWC component to some specific profiles.

    Two other answers already point out "Component Visibility". Could you elaborate a little bit why your answer is nevertheless valuable? And why adding a link to a screenshot on a third party site, when the same screenshot is already displayed here?!

  • I found one more way, as there can be a scenario where we have to add visibility for a larger number of users, we can add any unique permission on the profile of the users for which we have to show the component and use that permission here in the component visibility section. I shared the link, if in case the image does not get load to the other users! No other reasons!
