Hi there!
I am actually trying to use the OLS. Well, i created the roles as if they were normal RLS ones, but when i try in tabular editor to select the Table permissions they don´t appear. I´m quite new using this tool and I don´t really get why this happends. I´m using a pro trial account.
Here are the screenshot of what I see and what I want to see:
Thank you for your time, if anyone knows please let me know.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous , on the latest version of both, when I clicked on tabular editor from external tools, I get the second option.
Hope you opened it from power bi external tools
I already solved, it was a version problem. Thank you all for your time!!
Hi @Anonymous ,
Please make sure you have opened Tabular Editor for the corresponding report using 'External tools' as @ amitchandak mentioned to set Object Level Security.
For more details about OLS in tabular editor, please refer:
