"soft" row level security / custom default view

Can a report default to a subset of data based on the user, without limiting that user from seeing all data?  Something so when a user first pulled up the report it would display the data tied to them, but they would have the ability to see other data if they wanted?

    Hi Bobfather,

     

    AFAK, power bi RLS feature can't achieve your requirement.
    You can try to use the bookmark features to create a bookmark with specific filters for each users.(filter with USERNAME function on username\domain mapping table)

     

    BTW, you can also submit this to ideas forum.

      That's a good idea. I think it might be an opportunity for me to try out the new drill-through filters as well, so someone could get to a customized page with one click. Thanks for getting me thinking about alternatives!
