Can Viewer Role be set via API?

Hello,

It seems like the API is not currently suppporting setting up a user role to "Viewer".

My team tried to setup the role Viewer but it didnt work. We did this after we set the role to Member and noticed that it didnt restrict the access to read-only.

Is there a timeline for this capability?

Thank you,

Colin

Hi there

I am not sure when this will be implemented, it often follows about a month after it is implemented in the Power BI Service.
