RLS has moved to Power BI Desktop

[TomatoKnight]

Hi there,

I have a permission table build into my model on PowerBI desktop. When I login into service try to add email address under security. Below is the error message. 

I am currently on PowerBI Pro licence, I was able to set up RSL successfully in the past. Can anyone help?

Hi @TomatoKnight,

You can set RLS in the Power BI Desktop.

Modeling->Manage Roles

After setting it up here and then publishing to the service, your settings for the role will be published.

You can refer this link below:

Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Hope this helps you.

Hi CST,

Thank you for your reply.

In the past I set up the role called permission and used userprincipal function in Manage roles. 

I have tried to use your method, it worked too. As number of people need to access to this model far less than last time. 

Thank you.
