RLS with Power BI Embedded Premium Question?

Hi nimrod,

We're currently trying to implement RLS with Embedded and SSAS but encountered the issue stated above.

While your post gave me hope to be able to go forward, the documentation says the following about the effective identity passed to the GenerateTokenRequest method:

From https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-developer-embedded-rls: "The effective identity that is provided for the username property must be a windows user with permissions on the Analysis Services server."

var generateTokenRequestParameters = new GenerateTokenRequest("View", null, identities: new List<EffectiveIdentity> { new EffectiveIdentity(username: "username", roles: new List<string> { "roleA", "roleB" }, datasets: new List<string> { "datasetId" }) });

So the "username" value should match a Windows user with access on SSAS ?

This would lead me to believe that the "app own data" scenario isn't supported with Embedded and SSAS using RLS.

Is it a correct assumption ? If so, is it only temporary ?

Not having this feature will unfortunately bring our Embedded development to a full halt.

Kind regards,
