    Hi hhuddleston,

     

    Please follow the steps described in this article to check whether you have configured RLS correctly.

     

    Besides, please be aware of that, after publishing Power BI Desktop report to an app workspace within the Power BI service, the roles will be applied to read-only members. If you have configured the app workspace so that members have edit permissions, the RLS roles will not be applied to them. Users will be able to see all of the data.

     

    Regards,

Hi Herb.

 

I assume that you have taken this steps:

 

1. Created a rule in DAX for giving access just to Florida data in your report.

2. Assigned this rule to the test user in the data set in PWBI service.

3. The test user is not an administrator of the report.

 

If you have not taken any of this steps, surely the test user could see all data. This is my experience.

 

Hope it helps.

 

Best regards.
