Power BI Service dataset - connection

Hi,   I'd like my users to use a data model which i've published to a workspace and also includes RLS.   Is RLS applied if a user connects to the data set via Power BI desktop?   Regards Dave

Ok, however documentation clearly states for the RLS to work the user must only have read access within a workspace. However when a user select the Power BI Service connector in desktop and views the workspaces, the data set doesnt appear. Now i can only assume this is because they only have read access. When i change this to Edit, the user can now see the data set but RLS doesnt seem to apply.

 

Ideas?

    davekerby,

     

    Alternatively, you may make a copy of a content pack.

      Hi,

       

      Please can you explain what you mean by making a copy of the content pack?

       

      Ideally i don’t want to go down the content pack route as they will eventually be deprecated.

        davekerby,

         

        I mean other users can get the content pack you published and then make a copy. As for the app workspace, you may submit an idea.
