PBI Embedded RLS Error: Creating embed token with multiple identities is not supported

Hi everyone,

 

I am developing an App Owns Data web application in Python - Django. It's all working fine, but now I am trying to add Row Level Security to it, as mentioned in the docs from Power BI: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded-row-level-security.

 

I used the same example pbix and in Power BI desktop the roles are working, also the report is embedded just fine without RLS. However, when I add the identities payload to the request the REST API gives me the following error message as the response:

 

b'{"error":{"code":"InvalidRequest","message":"Creating embed token with multiple identities is not supported"}}'

 

The simplified python code that is working looks like this:

If I comment out the identities it gives me the embed token as usual. 

 

Any ideas why I'm getting this error? 

Help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Regards.

Did you manage to solve this? I need help on how to add the identity to the python sample on github to make RLS work for PBI embedding

Thanks
