Create multiple group roles based on column value

Hi,

 

Is there a way to create roles in PBI Desktop based on a column name values ?

For example, I have an excel file with customer's names, I want to create a role for each name, is it possible dynamically ?

 

Thanks

@Anonymous what do you mean by roles? I guess you are referring to Row Level Security (RLS)? Maybe do a google search on RLS, there are tons of topics on it in case that is what you are looking for. If not then explain more what you are trying to achieve.
