Hi Herbert,

 

Thanks for the comments, I think that's an accurate description of how it currently works.

But, is it really designed to work like this?

I don't understand the logic behind that..

Why am I blocked from consuming a content pack in a group, if it is shared with my email address?

 

This bug is blocking scenario's of distributing content - most importantly dashboards - from group A to group B.

Think of it as a simple DTAP environment..

Maybe you can take a look at the Data security section in this document.

All group members have the same permissions to the data as the content pack creator. 

 

If you only share the content pack with yourself in a group, other ones in the same group will not have the permission to same data. It will be conflict with above rule.

 

Best Regards,

Herbert

    As the page you referred to states: " The one exception to this is SSAS on-premises datasets.".

    That's the situation I'm talking about (should have mentioned this before).
