Hi @Anonymous ,

I think the user is a member of your workspace. If users have access to edit content in the workspace, RLS can't restrict them. The document: Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI  has specific instructions:

Be aware that in the Power BI service, members of a workspace have access to datasets in the workspace. RLS doesn't restrict this data access.

 

The relative role in workspace are admin, member and contributor. You could change his role to viewer. Then he will just view the data what you set.
