Using CustomData with Azure Analysis Services
Hi,
This sentence in the documentation isn't updated, we will fix that.
See this section in the same doc, on how to use 'CustomData'.
Hi,
I think you are hitting the limits when using the RLS in Power BI Embeded for Azure Analysis Services:
"
- Analysis Services live connections are supported for on-premises servers.
- Azure Analysis Services live connections support filtering by roles, but not dynamic by username.
"
Looping Staff nimrod to confirm the current status for whether Custom Data filter is supported when it comes to RLS in Power BI embeded for Azure Analysis Services.
A thread for your reference.

Hello,
I'm embedding reports that use a live connection to Azure Analysis Services in an 'App Owns Data' scenario. I'd like to explore the possibility of using the CustomData feature for dynamic filtering of reports as documented here.
The problem I have is that the EffectiveIdentity object has no overload for including CustomData as described in the documentation. How do I pass CustomData in this case? Here's an example of the code I'm currently using to generate the embed token:
var generateTokenRequestParameters = new GenerateTokenRequest("view", null, identities: new List<EffectiveIdentity> { new EffectiveIdentity(username: username, roles: new List<string> { "TestRole" }, datasets: new List<string> { report.DatasetId }) });
var tokenResponse = client.Reports.GenerateTokenInGroupAsync(groupId, report.Id, generateTokenRequestParameters).Result;How should I modify this to support CustomData?
Thanks!
