Possible to restrict report/dataset access for workspace members?

Hi there.

 

I was wondering if it's possible to have certain members of a workspace not being able to access certain reports/datasets, like item-level security. Basically I need to make something available to certain members of a workspace only by removing their direct access grated through their workspace membership. Thus far I can only find how to share outside of the workspace members.

 

Thanks for your help.

Hi there. You can't avoid a workspace user to view something. The way to share delimited items from a workspace is using PowerBi Apps by audiences. You can create one PowerBi App for each workspace. That App can create audiences that will have access to delimited items of the App.

I hope that helps,

Alright, will check it out. That might be a solution next to creating separate workspaces. Thank you.
