Object-Level Security - Trying to hide a specific column in a visual based on user type

I need to hide specific columns on a visualization based on the user.

Row-Level Security hides too much.

 

I found some information on Object-Level Security but requires Tabular Editor, an external tool.

 

Is there a way to accomplish this without Tabular Editor?

There is no objcet security feature built into Power Bi.

Your best option is to use Tableur Editor. The version 2 is free to download and it is easy to use.

Thank you for the reply but this hides the entire visual.
