    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    When I let the viewers access the sharepoint online site with my report, they get an error saying This content is not available.

     

    Users viewing a report in SharePoint need either a Power BI Pro license or the content needs to be in a workspace that's in a Power BI Premium capacity (EM or P SKU).

     

    Is there a way for me to share my report that has RLS to the free users?

     

    Currently, even you add a free user to a classic app workspace. The user cannot view anything. So Pro license is required here.

Hello v-frfei-msft 

 

I am working on something similar and running into issues. Here are the details:

 

We have a premium dedicated capacity. The reports are published to this capacity. I have created a role in PowerBI desktop and used UserPrincipalName() and when I am viewing as a role in the Desktop, it is displaying the right filtered data. However, when I am publishing the report to SharePoint online and embedding the report, the end users are not seeing the filtered data, They are actually seeing everything. Can you please look into this?

 

Thanks.

    I have the exact same issue. I don't think there is a solution to it. Every post I search with a similar issue either doesn't have a response or they say the free users need pro lisences (even if we have premium wokspace and publish the reports in capacity etc.).
