[Microsoft Fabric] Workspace/Artifacts Acces/Rights

We have a situation here and we can't quite master/understand the best way to achieve what we want to do...

In one `ws_fabric` workspace, let's say we have the following tree:

ws_fabric_bi
   |- topic_A (emp)
      |- SemAndReport
         |- sem_a
         |- report_a
   |- topic_B (ludivine)
      |- SemAndReport
         |- sem_b
         |- report_b

 

Let's say we have two list of users:
* `list_a`: through an audience, only them should be able to view 'report_a'
* `list_b`: should be able to:
   - import 'report_b' to be able to modify/add visuals in 'Power BI Desktop'
   - publish back to 'ws_fabric_bi'
   (- **without** having access to 'topic_A')

 

PS: We did not want to disrupt the solution you guys could provide by throwing hypothesis we add but...is using 'Sensitivity Label' a "best_practice" enabler ? 

  • (- **without** having access to 'topic_A')

    Impossible in a single workspace.  Use separate workspaces.

    Hi MathieuSGA,

    Thanks for participating in MS fabric community.

     

    lbendlin, Thanks for your prompt response.

     

    Can you refer to below and explore workspace roles + dataset permissions + item-level security in fabric workspaces: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/fundamentals/roles-workspaces

     

     

    Role Permissions
    Admin Full control: manage access, delete items, publish, etc.
    Member Can edit all content, create new content, but can't manage workspace access
    Contributor Can create/edit content (pipelines, datasets, notebooks), can't delete workspace
    Viewer Read-only: Can view content, run reports, but can’t edit anything

     

     

     

    Thanks,

    Prashanth Are

  • I agree with lbendlin. The best way to meet this need is to create separate workspaces.

    At this time, there is not a way to allow a user to edit the visuals of a published report without also allowing them to see all other reports in the workspace.  Based on this requirement, the minimum permission needed by list_b is workspace contributor.  With this permission, they also inherit access to the PowerBI app (and app audiences) for the workspace.  While sensitivity labels enhance governance by allowing for auditing, the classification of content, protecting exported data, etc. they don't control artifact visibility.
