Show Slicer Values based on the logged in user in Power BI

[Supritha1594]

Dear Community,

I have a slicer with the list of cost centers. I want to display cost centers of the logged in user in the cost center slicer. How can I do this in power BI. I have created a visualization which filters the data based on the slicers selection. I do not want to show all the cost centers to the logged in user. I want to show the cost ceters to which they belong to or have access to.

Kindly share the knowledge!

@Supritha1594 you can use Row-Level Security (RLS).  Create a table showcasing user names and their corresponding accessible cost centers.

Navigate to the "Modeling" tab in Power BI Desktop and access "Manage Roles."

Initiate a new role by clicking on "Create."

Within the "Table Permissions" section, designate the table housing cost centers.

Move to the "Filter" section, opt for "Only show the rows where," and select the column with user names and cost centers. Save the role by clicking "OK."

Once you have created the role, you can publish the report to Power BI Service. This YouTube video should be helpful for you.

Let me know if this works for you. @ me in replies, or I'll lose your thread!!!
