Latency in Workspace Permission Changes using Test As Role
I've removed the user from the workspace entirely - and the "Test as Role" feature still responds as if this user has "Member" access to the workspace. (At this point - you would expect the test to fail - since the user no longer has access to the workspace OR dataset).
If I publish the dataset/report to a new workspace - it operates as expected with this user. However, if I start to change the permissions of the user in the workspace - again there seems to be a lag on how long those permissions take to reflect in the "Test as Role" functionality.
Changing the user from Viewer to Member - 'should' remove RLS when using 'test-as-role' for that user. But it doesn't (at least not in a few minutes).
It's more a general comment about what 'expectations' we should have when changing permissions in a workspace - and those changes being reflected in the "Test as Role" capability.
Experienced the same thing today.
I know this is an old topic, but wanted to post this link here for anyone in the future looking for more info about when the roles actually update: Re: RLS doesn't update with changes in workspace a... - Microsoft Fabric Community
