Bypass RLS Power BI Reports Possible?

How can I bypass PowerBI RLS Reports so that admin level access can be used for those particular users? Does Power BI offers something like this or do we really need to build something in the model in order to make this possible? I dont have any problems in building this type of thing in Power BI but we are talking about 50+ reports here doing the above will be very lengthy process, does anyone have any other bright ideas?

@jdbuchanan71 
That does not happens in my case, since I have done this in the embedded application workspace admin users are not able to bypass the roles.

I don't have any experiance with embedded but would the admin role with no filters work for you?

@jdbuchanan71  not it does not works that way.

Hi, @Anmolgan 

Maybe you can refer to this thread.

If you add a role with no filters then any user in that role will see all data.

Also, any user that is a member of the workspace bypasses RLS because they have access to the data sources.
