Calculate number of rows in a table when Row Level Security is applied

Hi All,

 

I have a table in Data View. It contains one column (Country). I need to create a new column which should contain the number of rows in the table. Now when a user who has access to two countries, he should see only two countries with 2 as value in the new column.  Please note that I do not want to create a measure but a new column in the exisiting table.

 

CountryColumn in Table (Row Count)
Aus4
Eng4
SG4
US4

 

After Applying Row Level Security Access:

 

CountryColumn in Table (Row Count)
Aus2
Eng2

I think it's okay for you to have security in the measure.

 

After that, you need to Calculate the number of rows in your table as a Column

Column = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Sheet1),all(Sheet1))

@Krishnan_47 , As you can not userprincipalname in a column, I doubt that is possible.
