RLS and Direct lake

 

So according to this https://blog.fabric.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/microsoft-fabric-november-2023-update/#post-25061-_Toc1... RLS/OLS security and stored credentials for Direct Lake semantic models is now available.

 

However the Manage roles option is grey out for this Lakehouse + shortcuts to Gen2 storage POC I'm working on. 

What do I need to do to enable RLS in Direct Lake in the above senario? If above senario is not supported, what do I have to do to enable RLS with Direct Lake?

 

thanks for all your help!

Hi @kc_holman ,

The documentation also says that the web editing for the security is not yet available and will be rolled out during the next days/weeks.

At the moment, you can only use XMLA to configure security.

You would be able to experience web modeling security once it gets deployed.

Hope this is helpful. Please let me know if you have any other queries.

Setting up RLS on a Direct Lake semantic model (datazoepowerbi.com)

Hi @Anonymous, 

Is there an updated timeframe for the release of the web modeling security roles dialog?

I am excited to start using RLS with DirectLake.

Thanks! 

As of this week you can edit a semantic model with Tabular Editor (or the XMLA endpoint) and then continue editing in the we browser: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/furmangg_microsoftfabric-directlake-innovationvelocity-activity-71562...

 

Here's a great walkthrough on setting up RLS end to end on a Direct Lake semantic model.
