Hello,
I am just learning PowerBI, so I beg you pardon for what I can write.
I have a dashboard with multiple visualizations, being most of them filtered on a Table based roles (Users will only see lines whose column X has a certain value), that works fine.
On the other side, I need one calculation that should consider all the values, not only the X ones.
I though about duplicating the table where the role is applied and calculate visualization on that.
Is that reasonable?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @pasqualino,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.
You cannot disable Row-Level Security (RLS) for a specific visual while still using the same table, as RLS is applied at the dataset level and affects all visuals connected to that dataset. Additionally, you cannot bypass RLS using DAX as well.
So to bypass the limitation
we have to achieve selective application of Row-Level Security (RLS), you can duplicate or summarize your data into a new table that excludes any sensitive or personally identifiable information (PII).
This new table should not be included in any RLS role definitions. You can then use this non-RLS table specifically for the visual that needs to be exempt from RLS, while continuing to use the original RLS-protected table for all other visuals.
This ensures that RLS is only applied to the visuals connected to the secured table, allowing the designated visual to remain visible to all users without restriction.

Yes, a hidden aggregated table without PII and without RLS is reasonable.
