Keycloack authentication (and RLS)

Hello.

 

Is there any guidance/architectural documents regarding implementing keycloak auth for PBI RS? We want it working, including RLS part of the functionality.

There is no built-in support for keycloak, but you can develop custom authentication providers in c#. see Implement a security extension - SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) | Microsoft Learn 

Yep we have seen this article but unfortunately it provides zero architectural guidance.

 

We have keycloak extension developed, but it seems impossible to use RLS with it. Also, there are other issues - such as inability of PBI Desktop to work with any custom-built authentication extensions.

 

It seems that the feature exists only nominally.
