Hello All!
I have used RLS at a very base level but I am trying to do a step up.
I have a column within my table called "Approver Email", I would like to apply the RLS so the current user could only see the data in which they are the "Approver Email". I don't want to have to enter each person and their respective email.
I tried the following..I have a very similar "Filter" on a Power App that works swimmingly, but getting some errors here.
[Approver Email] = User().Email
Any suggestions? Tips? Helpful videos?
I appreciate the help!!
Solved! Go to Solution.
What you want is the dynamic RLS in Power BI. You can use userprincipalname(), which always returns the user in the format of their user principal name, username@contoso.com.
[Approver Email] = userprincipalname()
