Hello,
I want to segregate data in Power BI report server. The database is an Access database.
"User 1 can only view the Perimeter" , "User 2 can only view the Perimeter 2".
I have seen some solutions in internet :
- Row Level Security in cloud (report services)
- Using username() in MS SQL Server
but it doesn't work for an access database in Power BI report server.
Can you help me please ?
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply !
They use Microsoft SQL Server as a database which allows to use SQL Query whereas I am using Microsoft Access database 😕
Moreover, they create some roles in order to segregate data according to the user but we can't view the role in Power BI Report Server 😕
Native Power Bi PLS doesn't work on PBIRS, it is a feature for Q4.
The only option is to push via ETL TO A SQL Server, make a direct query connection and use the native SQL RLS or use a SSAS cube.
