Row Level Security - Admin Users not in security tables
It seems like the problem is caused by the creation of the "All Roles" role that doesn't have any restrictions. When a user is a member of this role, they can see everything in the report, regardless of the RLS filters defined for other roles. To resolve this issue, you can create a separate role for those users who need to see everything, and give them access to all the data in the report without using RLS.
Alternatively, you can modify the security predicates of the existing roles to include the conditions that allow the desired users to see everything. For example, you can add an OR clause in each security predicate that checks if the current user is one of the users who need to see everything.
Here is an example of how you can modify the security predicate for the "Executive" role:
[Executive Email]= userprincipalname() OR [Email]= "<specific email of the user who needs to see everything>"
Note: Replace <specific email of the user who needs to see everything> with the actual email of the user who needs to see everything. You can do the same for other roles as well.
By modifying the security predicates in this way, you can ensure that the desired users can see everything while still using RLS to restrict access to the other users.
Hi jaweher899
Thank you for your response. As I mentioned in my request, I have already created "AllRole" with no RLS i.e 1=1but it seems to apply the 1=1 for all users and show everything to executives, Head of , etc without checking username.
Basically, if the login user is not in the User Hierarchy table then he should see everything.

What's not exactly working please? May be you've some users exist in more than one AD.

We have only 1 AD group with executives, Headof,SM, Specialist as well as admin users.
As the admin users are also members of the same AD group , the condition 1=1 overrides the other RLS filters and displays everything to other users.
Sales AD Group User Role Exists in User Table Executive Head Of SM Specialist AllRole A [email protected] Executive Y [Executive Email]=userprincipalname() TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE B [email protected] Head Of Y [Headof Email]=userprincipalname() FALSE TRUE FALSE FALSE TRUE C [email protected] SM Y [SM Email]=userprincipalname() FALSE FALSE TRUE FALSE TRUE D [email protected] Specialist Y [Email]=userprincipalname() FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE E [email protected] AllRole N 1=1 TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE
