Is it possible to restrict data collected using tscollect to specific roles?

Is it possible to restrict the results of a tscollect to specific roles? like how indexes can be restricted to certain roles?
I have tried using "Restrict search terms" in the roles setting but it does not work.

Is there a documentation on how I can achieve this? or should I use summary indexing?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

AFAIK, there is no way to restrict access to the data stored by tscollect.

Ahh I see. Then I guess my only other choice now would be to use summary indexing and restrict the index which the results are in.

Yes, I think that would be your best choice.
