Is your SSAS instance on a different server to PBIRS? If so have you configured Kerberos authentication?

 

If you have not configured this you need to do this in order for RLS to work - see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/report-server/configure-kerberos-powerbi-reports 

 

If you have configured Kerberos and it was working previously you could be hitting this issue

      Hi experts,

      I'm using the PB desktop to create any reports whare the source is a SSAS tabular model. I create all reports but now I nees apply the RLS.

      then I publish on PBIRS

      I used this tutorial: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/analysis-services/tutorial-tabular-1200/supplemental-lesson-impleme..., but the role does not work.

       

      I created a little model to test, like this:

       

       

      after that, I created the role and add my 3 members:

      I connected another user to the Power bi desktop, and the rule was applied.

       

      But When I run the report, we can see that each row appears 3 times, once for each member I include in my security table.

       

       

       

      Anybody can help me, please?

        If you are a server admin on the SSAS server then this is the expected behaviour. Server Admins do not get RLS applied to them they can always see all the rows in all tables. You either need to test with another account or use a different account for doing admin activities on the server. At my work I have a separate admin account that I use for deploying changes to production, my normal account does not have any admin rights.
