Test as role not working in Power BI service

Hello,

 

Since about a week, maybe 2, Test as Role (RLS) in service is showing wrong data.

We haven't changed anything in our RLS or permissions. But now when I test as another user, I'm seeing my own cost center instead of the cost centre of the other user. 

Is this a known problem? 

 

Thanks

Alies

Hi @Anonymous ,

Based on my test, it could work on my side. And in your previous topic, it seemed work on your side?
