    Hello v-angzheng-msft,

     

    Thank you for your response. I have already removed all accesses from the workspace and left the access on the app only.

Hi, Anonymous 

 

Yes, access to the data source affects RLS filtering, if a user has access to the data source then RLS does not work, in other words, row level security only works for users with viewer privileges. If RLS does not work as expected, check if the workspace role permission is set to viewer.

 

 

Hope this helps.
