Dynamic RLS: The report can't be viewed because the underlying dataset uses row-level security(RLS)

Hello, i tried to implement Dynamic RLS based on this Video.
Implementing ROW LEVEL SECURITY - STATIC vs. DYNAMIC RLS | Power BI (youtube.com)

After implementing and publishing i get the Error: The report can't be viewed because the underlying dataset uses row-level security(RLS) when trying to view the report.

 

I think this Error occures because i dont added any Member to the Role i created, in the Power BI Security Tab.

But in the Video theres also no Member added (8:55 in Video)

 

So basicly the question is: Do I have to add users in the security role in the service for dynamic RLS?

(Because i thought the point of using dynamical RLS is to avoid this)

 

Thanks for youre help

The answer is yes.
Any user who needs to access the report, will need to be added to at least one RLS role.

Ok, thanks. So easiest way now is to create and maintain a security group with all the users and add this group to the RLS role?
