Power BI Embedded (JavaScript) App Owns Data - RLS is not working
Hello,
I've implemented Power BI Embedded solution (Apps own data) with Row level security using JavaScript. Embedded it successfully, however the Dynamic Row Level Security is not working in embedded page. It works fine in Power BI Service, Test as Role screen.
My scenario -
1. Data Source - SQL Server On-premise (On-premise Gateway set-up)
2. Dynamic RLS is configued in Power BI Desktop
3. Published Reports to Premium Capacity, upgraded Workspace
4. Embedded Solution - Apps Own Data using JavaScript (used GenerateToken method)
5. Added EffectiveIdentity as below in the JavaScript GenerateToken Call.
{
"accessLevel": "View",
"identities": [
{
"username": "EffectiveIdentity",
"roles": [ "Role1", "Role2" ],
"customData": "MyCustomData",
"datasets": [ "fe0a1aeb-f6a4-4b27-a2d3-b5df3bb28bdc" ]
}
]
}
What is that I'm missing in this set up?
Thank you!
Refer to this documentation
{ "accessLevel": "View", "identities": [ { "username": "EffectiveIdentity", "roles": [ "Role1"], "datasets": [ "fe0a1aeb-f6a4-4b27-a2d3-b5df3bb28bdc" ] } ] }You have to replace "EffectiveIdentity" with currently logged in user's email id. And "Role1" should be replaced with the actual role name which is defined in the Power BI desktop. Dataset id (fe0a1aeb-f6a4-4b27-a2d3-b5df3bb28bdc) should replace with your report's dataset id.
