RLS on re used data set

Hi All,

 

I am using one report data set in another report(Power BI data set). But "manage roles"  is disabled in the new report. Any way to enable it?

 

Appreciate your time.

 

Thanks,

Muni.

I understood your requirement and also shared the link and screen shot on top of your issue. 

You can't use the RLS option in Live and any Power BI Dataset option. This option available only with Import and Direct Query Connection Mode.

As you are using Power BI dataset so this RLS feature is not available. It may use the RLS setting of your importing dataset (another PBI report).
