PowerBI Embedded - Show/Hide Columns

Hi,

 

We have a requirement to have reporting and analytics capabilities in our ReactJS web application and are evaluating PowerBI Embedded for the same. Some of our reports have many columns, and depending on the logged in user or based on user's selection, only a subset of columns need to be displayed on the report. Is this supported in PowerBI Embedded? 

 

PS: I checked Playground samples, but could not see this - was expecting a Hide/Show option when i select a column header

 

Thanks,

Padmaja

    Hi padmajauk ,

     

    It sounds like you want to show different content to different users, instead of just choosing to hide the content you can try using RLS.

    Row-level security (RLS) can be used to restrict user access to data within dashboards, tiles, reports, and datasets. Different users can work with those same artifacts all while seeing different data. Embedding supports RLS.

     

    If you're embedding to Power BI users (user owns data), within your organization, RLS works the same as it does within the Power BI service directly. There's nothing more you need to do in your application. For more information, see Row-Level security (RLS) with Power BI.

     

    Also,you can refer to Row-level security with Power BI Embedded .

     

     

    Hope it helps,
