Mapping Jobs to Specific Storage By User

It is possible to map your jobs to use specific storage backends based on user! If you have e.g. specific user groups that need their data stored separately from other users, for whatever political reasons, then in your dynamic destination you can do something like:

job_destination = app.job_config.get_destination(destination_id)
if user == "alice":
    job_destination.params['object_store_id'] = 'foo' # Maybe lookup the ID from a mapping somewhere

If you manage to do this in production, please let us know and we can update this FAQ with any information you encounter.
