To Act as Proxy for existing RLS

I was trying to implement a Proxy for an existing RLS in my Dashboard. May I know how to set up this functionality as I was stuck in between?

 

I have a Role in the model named "Akiko" and the person Akiko is added in the Dataset-->Security as well. So now, if someone has been asking to access the "Akiko" role in a Proxy instead of her, what is the possible way to provide Proxy access.

First you open your power Bi report and go to moddeling -> manage roles

After that you should create the diffrent RLS you need inside the report.
Make sure to make a logic where the rows that should be filtered have an e-mail corresponsing to the user who should be able to see it.
Add that e-mail to the tabels and a logic where the [e-mail] = userprincipalname()

I sounds like you userstand how to set up the RLS inside powerBI service, but just make sure that the e-mail in your report matches the e-mail that you use to share the report.
I hope this helps you to get in the write direction.
