Parameter Output to Role as input value

[Anonymous]

Hi im trying to implement a kind of security to dashboard using ManageRole on desktop,

i have a dataset with fields UserName,IsUserHasAccess

usually IsUserHasAccess field has 3 different values (Y,N,*).

so here each user is having one of the value among these 3 (Y,N,*),

im passing UserName as a input Parameter now the out put for this should be passed to my Role

whether Y,N or *

how to implement this.

any ideas.

In this scenario, you can create a Table filter DAX expression in Manage Role like below:

IF (
    LOOKUPVALUE ( Table[IsUserHasAccess], Table[UserName], USERNAME () ) = "Y",
    TRUE,
    FALSE
)

Thannks alot Simon,

do i need to create one Parameter(USERNAME()) first in Edit query or the below DAX creates.

No, you don't need to create a parameter. USERNAME() is a build-in function to return the "domain\username" of accessing user.

Thanks alot Simon this did work.

can you please reframe the expression,

if i have a Parameter with Name USERNAME while entering in to desktop it shoud pop up for this.
