Hello,
I would like a quick check on my conclusion about RLS:
If I put Username = username() as RLS, then embedded the report in sharepoint: The RLS won't work for users (within portal.office.com) without PRO license for Power BI. The alternative is to purchase premium to be able to use RLS by username logged in shapoint (without license).
Made this conclusion after reading https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-embed-report-spo/
Please, what I understood is correct?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Larry130 RLS should work for end users regardless of license type. So in your two different scenarios (Pro - Pro / Premium - Free) if RLS is set up it still applies to the end users.
