SQL direct query credentials

Anonymous "B" will see whatever "A" can in this scenerio. There are no additional perms needed on the database for Direct Query.

Is this also true for Azure SQl, where no gateway is required?
As long as you haven't applied RLS, the same should apply. The author passes on their creds with the report.
In effect for all datasources expect SSAS- if any dashboard is shared with another user (B), B can see the content even if B dosnt not have acess to the database? Direct Query, is not "Live Connection" - SSAS uses Live connection, and it requires that all end users have read access on the tabular model. If they don't, they won't be able to see the visualizations - they will just show as gray boxes.

we have a situation where we are NOT using SSAS Live Connection and when the person who creates the dashboard based on the direct connection to the on premise SQL Database (without using the Gateway) shares the dashboard, the person who received the shared dashboard cannot see the panes on the dashboard - they are all gray boxes with circles with X's in the circles. This worked a couple of weeks ago but quit working.
