    Hi Niko90 ,

    We appreciate you bringing your question to the Microsoft Fabric Community. To add to andrewsommer  suggestion. Because Report A uses DirectQuery over Semantic Model B, users need Build permissions on Semantic Model A to view the visuals. App audiences don’t automatically have Build access, which leads to the Error fetching data for this visual. 

    Create a security group for app only users and grant it Read + Build permissions on Semantic Model A to ensure proper access for DirectQuery based reports.

     

    Thank you for your prompt reply in the community andrewsommer .

     

    Regards,
    Yugandhar.

I would start by explicitly granting read permissions on model A.  Ideally, you would use a security group, grant read access to the group and then add users to that group.

 

Please mark this post as a solution if it helps you. Appreciate Kudos.
