HI @santiagomur 

To my knowledge, It is not supported to implement your demand in Power BI currently.

For your case, I think the best way is use RLS to limit the user to see the data in report.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-rls

or use USERPRINCIPALNAME() to create conditional measure

For example:

IF(USERPRINCIPALNAME() = A,<your expression>, Blank() )
