Reports and Dataset/Semantic Model Security
I'm creating a report that the whole company will be able to access via a Workspace App. The report is connected to a dataset/semantic model that contains some data that is restricted to certain user...
Read is same as Viewer.
Yes with Read permission, user can't see the dataset.
Hi arock-well
Using Power BI Apps environment is meant exactly for your needs. Good practices are :
- Create 3 Workspaces 1- WS_Dev & Test, 2- WS_Dataset Prod only ,3- WS_Report Prod only(for Thin reports)
- From WS_Report Prod only create the App
- In the App add your users or Securtiy groups to different audiences to view reports
- Go back to WS_Dataset Prod only and click on the 3 dots next to the Dataset to Manage permissions
- New window will open where you can give access to your audience as Viewers
Do not add users to Workspaces Prod unless it is really necessary.
