    Hey 3508026 ,

     

    You will still need to add the names of the individuals (or group) to the app.  The RLS is about the data and the App permission is about who you allow to see the report at all.  So, it is two things working together.

I think I understand.

If you publish to a Workspace it is expected that the people you share the reports with are there, and the RLS should work without a problem, correct.

In this case the people I have added to the roles are not part of the Workspace, so one of the ways I found to solve it was to add them to the report through 'Manage Permissions', but this does not prevent, that the message to 'request access' appears, so when I get it, I approve and they get the access.

So, I have two questions:
Is this the right solution? or
would it be better to add them to the Workspace? it was created for a few people in my department, but the recipients of our reports have grown, so maybe it would be better to create a Workspace for all these recipients.

    Hi Sai,
    My question was related to RLS and its impact on Apps
    As 'Apps' is not a Workspace you don't need to add people to the "App", correct?
    but in case you have established a RLS in the report, this is still maintained in the "App"
