Hi v-qiuyu-msft,
Thank you for having a look.
I created a content pack for the dataset with RLS and shared it with three users each of which have different role membership. There was a group which had common membership but I ensured that the privacy level is read only and yet the users can view all data. Any other ideas?
Thanks,

Hi Anonymous,
Based on my test, if I add those shared user account under the created role, when creating a content pack for the dataset, shared users cann't see all the data after getting this content pack. In your scenario, please double check if those share users are added under the role, and they only have read-only permission in the group. Make sure they are not dataset owner.

Hi v-qiuyu-msft,
I did not share my content pack with specific group but rather with individual role members using their email id. so essentially I published my desktop report file to my workspace (this file had the roles defined with RLS). Then using the dataset I added individual users to the role membeship. I then created a content pack and shared that with individual users (Not Groups within PowerBI). These individual users are the same as users with role membership but it seems the RLS isn't working this way.
After checking your last post I created a group and assigned members read only permissions to it and recreated a content pack shared with this group and now RLS works. So finidngs are that RLS only work when shared through a group created within PowerBI. if I share directly it ends up allowing users right to all data.
Thanks for your help.
