Hi,
I was wondering what the limit is for adding roles to PBI Desktop and members in PBI Service? I would like to add a role for every store and there is around 900 of them, so I was wondering if there is a limit?

Hi @melpop !
As a best practice try to create Security Groups for implementing RLS, and assign users to these security groups. Security Groups allows you to easily manage users.

Hi @HashamNiaz
That's also the plan but thanks for bringing it up, relevant point!
Hi,
I can't see a limit in the documentation however maintaining 900 roles will be very difficult.
You'd be better setting it up with dynamic RLS. Effectively leveraging a table to determine which stores a user can see.
