Abstract: A visualization data is obtained for an answer object. A generation-identifier is associated with the visualization data. The generation-identifier corresponds to access control data associated with a first user. A snapshot of the first visualization data is received from a user device of the first user.

An association is stored between the generation-identifier and the snapshot. The answer object is then identified responsive to data expressing a usage intent received from a device of a second user. Responsive to access control data associated with the second user matching the generation-identifier, instructions for rendering the first snapshot at the device of the second user are output.
