CUSTOMDATA() function not working

Hi 

 

We have on-prem Report Server connected to SSAS Tabular Model (Connect Live)

 

We have used custom authentication (using GitHub)

 

For implementing RLS , we need to capture the login id of the user logged in , hence we used customdata function

 

I remember it was working earlier , but now it is not working..

 

eg: Create a measure ConnectedUser=CUSTOMDATA()  -- gives the userid who have logged into powerbi

 

Now it is giving blank

 

Pls suggest
