Max Number of Rows for Row Level Security

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.

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.
