Nested Security Groups
Hi all, Has anyone had any issues using nested security groups in PBI? I found a couple of old threads but they didn't seem to answer the issue i.e. this one https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Ser...

Hi,
The specific issue we have is when assigning permissions to a dataset in a different workspace. The user can see the application but gets a warning that they don't have access to underlying dataset.
The parent security group is assigned correct permissions to dataset, user can only access if we add the nested security group to the permissions directly.
Yes, both parent and nested groups are security groups (not mail enabled)

Thanks for the clarification.
It does appear that it is not enumerating (going down to the next level), for Security Groups.
I would log a support ticket for further investigations.
