No Role Based Security Applied For Email Subscription

[iqb]

I am using Role Based Security which filters data based on logged-in user. I just subscribe a user to get email. His role was restricted but the email he got was all dashboard data instead of filtered. 

Does email subcription not filter data depending upon user to sent?

Hi @iqb ,

For Power BI reports, dashboards, or paginated reports that use a dataset with row-level security (RLS), use caution when creating subscriptions for yourself and others. Power BI will warn you that the data contains RLS, but customers often scroll past the warning message.

The static image sent in the subscription email will display data based on your permissions. For this reason, when creating subscriptions, be careful to ensure that confidential information isn't included in the static image. Other than that static image, the report or dashboard itself will open (or not) and display data based on the user's permissions.

Note: Users have to subscribe to the content themself.

          Creating subscriptions for other users will use your credentials.
