Row Level Security issue

hi guys, i encounter a problem and i deeply need your help. i set a row level security in power bi desktop RS and it works fine i test it with "View As". then i publish the report to the report server. from the Manage>Row Level Security i add the user and assign it to the role that i created. but when i see the dashboard with that user, the role does not work. i wonder why it does not work. any comment is appreciated.

Hi @alisoroush7 ,

 

1. What mode are you using to connect to the data source and what is your data source? 

Keep in mind that RLS isn't respected if your DirectQuery connection uses integrated authentication for report readers. For Analysis Services live connections, you configure row-level security on the on-premises model.

 

2. Please check if these limitations are triggered?

Considerations and limitations

 

3. Use the latest version of Power BI RS and then republish the report.

@alisoroush7 , hope that the user is the viewer. If he is an admin, security might not apply. But even in that case, it should work in view as. make sure the role is published correctly. Republish and try
