Hi
I have a "Revenue" column in my "Table visual", i want to restrict the "Revenue" column access to the end users using "Object level security.
When i restrict the "Revenue" column, entire Table visual is not loading.
Note: i have one more role in my Pbix, and for that role i don't want to restrict access to the "Revenue" column. So i can't remove the "Revenue" column from the visual.
Is there a way can avoid this issue?
Any help on this is much appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hi @yodha ,
There is no problem with your settings. Object-level security is a measure that hides the entire table, column, or depends on the column. After setting the ols based on a certain role, the corresponding visual will not be displayed in the report, and the visual will only change after the role is switched.

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.
