Role filter not working

[gspollock]

Hi,

I am trying to implement row level security.  The expression that is entered to filter the data in the fact table FACT_REPORT_SHARE in Manage Roles is this:

[EID] = LOOKUPVALUE(DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER[USER_LOGIN],DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER[USER_EMAIL], USERPRINCIPALNAME())

The EID that is returned by the expression is the Employee ID that is assigned to the user.  The [USER_LOGIN] column is the Employee ID.

I added a measure to FACT_REPORT_SHARE with the same expression:

EID2 = LOOKUPVALUE(DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER[USER_LOGIN],DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER[USER_EMAIL], USERPRINCIPALNAME())

When I put the EID and EID2 columns in a table, it is correctly returning my own EID in the EID2 column, but the EID column returns all the EID's in the table.

So it seems that this expression in Manage Roles is not filtering FACT_REPORT_SHARE.  What am I doing wrong?

[EID] = LOOKUPVALUE(DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER[USER_LOGIN],DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER[USER_EMAIL], USERPRINCIPALNAME())

Hi @gspollock ,

If I understand correctly, it seems that you applied RLS in the table, but it didn't work. Am I right? If yes, you can refer the following links to try to solve your problem.

If the above one can't help you, could you please provide some raw data in your table 'FACT_REPORT_SHARE' and 'DIM_OBIEE_SECURITY_USER'  (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? By the way, is there any relationship between them? If yes, please also provide the related info. It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following link to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
