Dashboard with authentication
Good Morning!
I'm going to start a college job on medical data visualization with power bi.
I would like to be able to integrate some kind of login so that only authorized people can view sensitive data. If there is no authenticated user, it would show them a series of non-sensitive data, but it also has to give you the option to be able to authenticate to be able to see more.
Is there something like this in power bi at my fingertips?
Thank you!
Hi estebara
What you want is called Row Level Security (RLS) in Power BI.
This restricts the data Power BI users can see on a Report by login name. So you can create one report, share it with 10 other users and they will only see the data that is applicable to them.
Each user requires a Power BI licence, this needs to be Pro or Premium Per user if you only have a Pro or Premium Per User licence. It can be a Free licence if your organisation has a "Premium Capacity" licence.
You can find the microsoft documentation on RLS here Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Hope this helps
