Report builder and RLS

Hi Community, I'm working on report builder, so I'm developed a report with power bi live connection to semantic model, in this SM it has RLS rules, so when my user to open the report builder.

 

is the report automatically take the RLS ?

 

Or  have I to configure other RLS in report builder side?

 

In the doc, it say you can modify by "USERID"

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/paginated-reports/paginated-reports-rls 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

  • Hi Peter_23 ,

    1. Since Report Builder uses a live connection to the Power BI Semantic Model, the RLS defined in the model will apply automatically based on the user who runs the report.
    2. The user's identity is passed through when the report is run, meaning you don't need to configure additional RLS in Report Builder.
    3. No extra configuration is necessary for RLS within Report Builder if it’s already set up correctly in the model.

    Hope this answers your question.
