Azure AD Security Group In Lakehouse SQL analytics endpoint

Hello,

Can I access AD Security group in Lakehouse SQL analytics endpoint? I tried IS_MEMBER ('AnyGroupName')  function. But it didn't work. It returned "NULL". Do you have any idea? My aim is to create RLS security in SQL with Security Groups.

 

Below link says for IS_MEMBER function:  "... current user is a member of a database role or a Windows domain group."

 

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/is-member-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver16

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

The approach shown in the link, is using USER_NAME() for single user only.

 

 

-- Creating a function for the SalesRep evaluation
CREATE FUNCTION Security.tvf_securitypredicate(@SalesRep AS nvarchar(50))
RETURNS TABLE
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
RETURN SELECT 1 AS tvf_securitypredicate_result
WHERE @SalesRep = USER_NAME() OR USER_NAME() = 'manager@contoso.com';
GO

 


How can we do it for Entra ID security groups?

I have tried to do that, but I wasn't succesful. Can you provide some guidance. Please see my post: SQL Analytics Endpoint - RLS for Security Groups - Microsoft Fabric Community
