Row level Security not working right now?
tdimbladThe RLS is currently working with the June 2016 power bi update. You can now set up the role and rule in Power BI desktop. And it would not overwrite the role members in Power BI service, which is what is supposed to be. But on the power BI service, it still says it is a preview feature - so I guess we still can not use it for production.

Yes it is still a preview feature. With the June 2016 release of Power BI Desktop the role creation was moved from the Power BI service to Power BI Desktop. Existing roles that were configured in the service will not work, and the roles need to be setup within Power BI Desktop and then published to the service.
The nice thing with that is republishing will not cause the roles to get blown away now. As they are part of the Power BI Desktop file.
Youl will still need to add members to the role within the Power BI service.
For more information about RLS, and a list of known limitations, you can check out the official doc.
