Hi there,
Just a quick one. Is it possible or is there a workaround in using RLS in a live connection cube?
Am using a live connection and the entire Modelling Ribbon is greyed out. Any tips to manage roles please?
Thanks
Yomi
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous ,
Currently you can create roles if you imported the data into Power BI Desktop. If you are using a live connection, you will not be able to configure RLS within the Power BI service. This is defined within the Analysis Services model on-premises.
