Dynamic RLS and one-to-many relationship
I have a report that I want to use dynamic row level security. While I have implemented basic RLS before, I am getting thoroughly confused with the following situation.
I have a user table consisting of an id and user email address:
| WorkloadID | username |
| 1 | bob @ domain |
| 2 | jane @ domain |
| 3 | bob @ domain |
The id is related to a workloads table (* to 1):
| WorkloadID | Name |
| 1 | AppABC |
| 2 | 123 Comms Ltd |
| 3 | Amazing App Co |
This would mean bob should see workloads 1 and 3, with Jane seeing 2 when RLS is applied
The trouble here is the relationship between the workload table and the user table is one to many (one user may have many workloads).
How would I configure RLS in this case? Ive been attempting to setup role filters on the workload table without any succes so far.

Planky , Forcefully make it many to many bi-directional with bi-directional security or
or many to many Table 1 filter Table 2

Thanks. I changed the cross filter to both and applied security in both directions, which works. I was reading that doing that should be avoided due to performance issues, but couldnt see how to apply the subsequent dax in my situation.
