Hi@Anonymous ,

You can use Dynamic row level security in Power BI using DAX USERNAME() or UserPrincipalName() function.

However, you need to make sure that your Power BI model has a relationship set up properly. Otherwise, people might see other table’s data when there is no relationship between their profile table to those tables.

Dynamic row level security is highly dependent on your data model, so keep your data model right.

For more information，you can refer to this：

You can also follow the tutorial below ：Dynamic Row Level Security with Manager Level Access in Power BI 

Hope it helps.

Hello @amitchandak ,

I have added simply the Dax on my User Table

[UserName] = UserName()

but its not working.

I need to filter the data using the specific BU if the person of that BU logins
