How can I filter a report by current user automatically?

Hi,

 

Please, I need some help.

 

I have a Power BI Report based on a custom list, and I added a control to select the user manually. Now I have the requirement to filter the Report automatically by the current user. Is it possible? How can I do that?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @efebo ,

 

In addition to using RLS, you can also consider data masking:
