Hi Anonymous .. Thanks for your respond.

 

We have RLS in the main report and SAP BW as the data source. i have the full access to the data source and user will have some restricted view by their region. So if they create a query in the data source and use the gateway setup by me where i have the full permission, will they get full data since they use my gateway?

Hi Anonymous ,

 

Based on my test, if user A use the exactly same query in Power BI Desktop they still need to enter the credentials to use this query and publish to the Power BI Service, But we  suggest you do not set them as a user of gateway(in case they any way they can publish success and use the gateway to get all data).If you just want to share report with only view premission, they can still get the refresh if the owner of gateway has set the scheduled refresh.
