How to refresh workspace when lower role assignment from member to viewer?
- 2 years ago
Hi Experts,
The problem has been solved.
The role in workspace is refreshed after the user logged out and signed in again according to note in the below link.
"After you add or remove a user or a group for workspace access, the permission change only takes effect the next time the user logs into Power BI."

Hi. That's weird considering that only viewers are the role that will be affected with RLS. It shouldn't be any problem from changing from member to viewer. Something that might help here is checking the permission of the dataset. Go to the semantic model "manage permission" settings. Make sure the viewers don't have build permission.

Also check that the user doesn't have any additional permission in a Power Bi App as builder too.
I hope that helps,
Hi, Thanks for your message.
This seems like a bug to me.
In the manage permission, I have checked and those viewers do not have build permission.
I also removed them from the workspace and re-added them with the viewer role assignment and do not add them in the RLS list of the semantic model but they still can display all the data.
