Roles having issues on user wise

Hi Team, I have created roles in power bi and adding users in Powerbi service but when i test the roles it's not working properly and not resticting the users as well but when i go to role "Test as role" it's working fine as expected but when the user open the report unfortunetly he is seeing all the data. How to fix this issue. 

  • Hi! be sure that the user is not an admin, member or contributor in the workspace. If they have one of those roles, they can see it all ignoring RLS. They must be viewers or have it shared without build permissions.

    I hope that helps,

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Please make sure you the users are the Viewer role in the workspace, Workspace members assigned Admin, Member, or Contributor have edit permission for the dataset and, therefore, RLS doesn’t apply to them. If you want RLS to apply to people in a workspace, you can only assign them the Viewer role.

     

    For more details, you can read related document: Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs , Roles in the new workspaces in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
