Question on Row Level Security / null mean allow to view all data

Dear all

 

I have a main table storing Customer_ID and related data like Sales.

And I have a user role table storing which user could access which customer ID like belows
Main Table
Customer_ID | Sales

ABC|$300
XYZ|$4450
DXC|$1000


User Table

User_Email|Customer ID

[email protected]|ABC 

[email protected]|null  

(null mean no restriction to customer_ID in our system)

 

Would it be possible to let UserB view all the customer data?
Or I have to make the user table like the following?

User_Email|Customer ID

[email protected]|ABC 

[email protected]|ABC 
[email protected]|XYZ
[email protected]|DXC  

 

Thank you.

    Hi tomcch ,

     

    According to your statement, I think your requirement is that the User whose Customer ID is null could see all value.

    I suggest you to try code as below in Manage Roles 'Main Table'[Custom ID].

    [Customer_ID] = 
VAR _LIST = CALCULATETABLE(VALUES('User Table'[Customer ID]),FILTER(ALL('User Table'),'User Table'[User_Email] = USERPRINCIPALNAME()))
RETURN
IF("null" in _LIST,CALCULATE(MAX('Main Table'[Customer_ID])),CALCULATE(MAX('Main Table'[Customer_ID]),FILTER('Main Table','Main Table'[Customer_ID] in _LIST)))

    Result is as below.

     

     

    Best Regards,

    how are you currently restricting with RLS?  not quite clear what you are saying

     

    if you userb to see all the data, then you need to set up a role that allows that
