How to hide buttons based on user role

[POSPOS]

Hi All,

I have two roles in Power BI desktop. My requriment is that , from the image below, the toggle button and the Text should  be hidden for Role 1 and it should show for Role 2.

Roles:
Role 1:

Role 2: 

Can someone please suggest how this can be achieved?

Thank you

Hi @POSPOS,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

I have reproduced your scenario in Power BI Desktop and I achieved the expected outcome based on your requirements:

• When RLS_1 user clicks the "Continue" button → they are redirected to Page_Role1.
• When RLS_2 user clicks the "Continue" button → they are redirected to Page_Role2.

This was achieved using:

• Row-Level Security (RLS) to identify the user role.
• A DAX measure to determine the destination page dynamically.
• A button with conditional navigation configured via the Action > Page Navigation > Field value option.
  
  

For your reference, I’ve attached the .pbix file that demonstrates this setup end-to-end. You can open it in Power BI Desktop and test it using “View as Role” from the Modeling tab.

Hi @POSPOS 

You're asking whether a toggle button (like "Department") can be hidden for Role 1 and shown only for Role 2 using RLS.

To clarify: Row-Level Security (RLS) only restricts the data that is visible to users – it does not control the visibility of visual elements like buttons, tabs, or bookmarks.

If you want to show or hide visuals based on roles, you'll need to use DAX-based conditional formatting (like using a measure to control the visibility of a visual via a transparent shape) or manage it via separate report pages and bookmarks, possibly combined with a slicer value filtered by role-specific logic.
