Enable different RLS for specific reports connected to a shared dataset

Hi All, 

 

Hope you all are well. 

All of our reports are referencing data from a shared dataset. The RLS is applied on this dataset and is working fine. Now, I have a requirement to create another RLS role and activate that role for only one report (ideally for visual). I have been working on that for a while now but I am not able to find a solution for it. Because adding a separate RLS role simply bypassing the existing role and effecting our existing reports.   

 

Would you guys please help how can we activate a specific RLS for one report or ideally a visual only. I'd appreciate any help. 

Thank you!

@sm_talha , Create a measure using userprincipalname , that can filter data

 

and then use that is visual level filter, see if this approach can help

Thanks for the suggestion but I am sorry I think I am not getting what uou saying. 

 

I have already applied a dynamic RLS which uses the userprincipalname and restricts data at organization's hierarchy levels. 

I need to apply a similar RLS role, and that is actually bypassing the existing RLS.
