Hi, I'm trying to implement RLS into a Power BI report that contains specific words. I have a column that is responsible for descriptions, in those descriptions are key words that would be used to implement RLS.
Is there any DAX I could use to implement a find or contain or if function I can use in an RLS filter?
Solved! Go to Solution.
The function CONTAINSSTRING should work for this purpose.
An RLS filter might look something like this:
CONTAINSSTRING ( Table1[Description], "keyword" )
The function CONTAINSSTRING should work for this purpose.
An RLS filter might look something like this:
CONTAINSSTRING ( Table1[Description], "keyword" )
This is perfect! Thank you.
