I'm trying to get RLS working in a new report that has a mix of Direct Query and Import tables. The DQ tables need to be DQ because they are coming from live data.
When I 'view as role', none of the tables from DQ get populated. I've checked, double checked, read, read twice, and still can't seem to find an answer.
Thoughts please?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thanks. I ended up having to delete the queries, apply the changes, then re-add the queries for DQ. They didn't like to be retrofitted.
Hi @jcs93 ,
Based on my test, the RLS works normally in Direct Query combined with Import, I uses the latest version of PowerBI.
By the way, we can't see data in the Data tab when using Direct Query.
Best Regards,
Teige
