Hi All,
I have a requirement to implement row level security based on the below data.
Level 1 , Level 2 and Level 3 are the hierarchies.
Requirement: My requirement is to implement row level security in such a way that, if Level 1 logs in, he should see all data. If anyone from Level 2 logs in, he should see their specific Level 3 data.
Eg:
If Level 1=SM1 logs in, then he should see all data i.e., M1,M2,M3, E1,E2.....E8.
If Levrel2 =M1 logs in , he should only see E1,E2,E3.
Can someone please advise on how to implement this using the sample data provided. Pbix file is attached here.
Thank you.

Hi @POSPOS ,
Please use the following formula:
VAR _user =
USERPRINCIPALNAME ()
VAR _is_l1 =
_user IN VALUES ( 'Table'[Level 1] )
VAR _is_l2 =
_user IN VALUES ( 'Table'[Level 2] )
VAR _is_l3 =
_user IN VALUES ( 'Table'[Level 3] )
RETURN
IF (
_is_l3,
'Table'[Level 3] = _user,
IF ( _is_l2, 'Table'[Level 2] = _user, IF ( _is_l1, 'Table'[Level 1] = _user ) )
)
Result:
