Date and User based RLS

[raulallas]

I am trying to have a report that would automatically restrict access to users if their valid to date has expired.

As the base for secuirity i have a 3 column table. 

The User and ValidToDate column are imported from an independent source and AccessColumn is conditional on the ValidToDate column. 1 being good to go and 0 being no access.

I have the role Viewer set up to check if the AccessColumn value is 1 and the user is listed. If both conditions are filled it should grant access. But my problem is that i can't get it to work. It seems to be stuck in the open position for all the users.

Any tips would be appreciated!

What do you mean by can't get it work and stuck in the open position for all the users? Can you explain it more.

"If both conditions are filled it should grant access. " I don't really get that sense or I misunderstood. In your sample, RLS checks users account name and the Valid to date, if both matches the viewer should only see the rows that matches the conditions. In you case, viewers should see nothing. 

Please refer to the doc for how to get RLS work: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/service-admin-rls#:~:text=Row-level%20security%20%28....
