Is there a way to temporarily restrict access to Dashboard? I only need to remove access for a couple of weeks, but if go through Manage permissions > Direct access it only lets me remove access, this also removes them from the list altogether, but I want them still to be there so I can easily add them back in
Solved! Go to Solution.
@bella769 - Unfortiunately, there is no way to diable the access temporarily. You can create a Azure AD group and add all the Users in that group. And, then use the AD groups for assigning to the reports. Assigning and unassigning users using AD groups will be easy.
Or set up a dummy RLS role and flag the tables as False. And, when you want the Users to see the data, you can remove the dummy RLS.
Hope this helps !

if we unassign the users to the report, are the bookmarks created by them will be lost?
