    It turns out that the "test as role" functionality in the service is buggy and inacurrate. I ended up taking a chance and releasing the reports to my community despite what "test as role" was showing as my last resort. And RLS worked, meaning the "test as role" view was wrong and misleading. Is there a way to submit a bug report?

Hi tod ,

 

What is your data source? The main reason why RLS does not work is that the person viewing the report has editing rights to the dataset. Please double check whether your viewer is a member of the workspace, or whether he has editing rights to the report.

 

If possible, you can upload the report to another new workspace for testing.
