Permission to use semantic model with no modify permission.

[Fern_21]

Hi all,

I'm working with Self Service BI in power BI and I would like to know how to enable users to use a semantic model without modifying it.

I can't assign them workspace admin or member role and the viewer role seems to be unable to connect to the semantic model.

I also tried flagging only the option "Allow recipients to build content with the data associated with the semantic model" in "Grant people access" to grant semantic model access but it doesn't work either.

Is there a way to allow users (excluding admin and member roles) to use a semantic model with no modify permission?

Thanks
