Dynamic RLS with complex security module
Hi,
I'm trying to create a Dynamic RLS for a complex security module,
here are the table structure and relationship:
Table 1. Users
| Username | Company Code | Role Type | Access ID |
| A | A | S | |
| B | A | A | |
| C | A | R | 77 |
| D | B | B |
Table 2. Roles
| Username | Access Detail |
| A | 12345 |
| A | 67891 |
| C | 77 |
| D | 97 |
Table 3. Data
| ID | Date | Value | Company Code | Role S | Role B | Role R |
| 1 | 01-01-2021 | 1 | A | 12345 | 77 | |
| 2 | 01-01-2021 | 2 | A | 67891 | ||
| 3 | 01-05-2021 | 3 | A | 77 | ||
| 4 | 10-01-2021 | 4 | B | 97 |
As it's showing in the above Data Table, User "A" should be able to see the first 2 rows as Role S 12345 & 67891 are linked to user A in Roles Table and user A is in Company "A", User “C” should be able to see row 1 and row 3 as Role R is 77 and 77 is linked to user C and the user is in Company “A”, and finally User “D” should be able to see only row 4 as Role B is 97 and user Company is “B”.
User “B” should be able to see everything as Role Type “A” is Admin.
So, the relationship here is:
- Table 1 (Username) -> Table 2 (Username)
- Table 1 (Company Code) -> Table 3 (Company Code)
- Table 1 (Role Type) -> Table 3 (Role S, Role B or Role R)
- Table 2 (Access Detail) -> Table 3 Value of (Role S, B or R)
I’ve tried different type of DAX expression but with no luck so far, any ideas that might help in resolving this?
Thanks in advance,

khalilg Why do you have AccessID as part of the Users table?
It feels as if you need to have a concatenated list of Access Details in the Users table, and make them company specific to remove the dependency on Company Code.
Username Company Code Role Type Access Codes A A S 12345|67891 B A A C A R 77 D B B 97 And then in the RLS rules you can check PATHCONTAINS()
