REST API for RLS security management and report sharing

[freemanru]

Is there any way to handle folowing steps using PowerBI Services REST API:

1. Add members to the RLS role (Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs)

2. Share report with the users

I did check Power BI REST APIs - Power BI REST API | Microsoft Docs but unable to find anything useful.

We want to automate some steps to share reports with our users, so if this is not possible with REST then may be PowerShell?

Hi @freemanru,

Current power bi rest API seems not to support directly manage RLS roles. If this role is assigned to the security group, you can use correspond API (azure api) to add/remove users to a specific group.

Members - Get - REST API (Azure DevOps Member Entitlement Management) | Microsoft Docs

Members - Add - REST API (Azure DevOps Member Entitlement Management) | Microsoft Docs
