Viewer Role (with PRO license) Not seeing Visuals

[CAPEconsulting]

Can someone assist with this error. The user can see the report (as seen behind the error) but not access the visuals. The workspace based Viewer role has a Pro license and the user has been granted Read permission to the dataset too. The dataset is a direct query dataset that is accessing 2 PowerBi datasets.

Hi  @CAPEconsulting ,

You can try the following ways:

1. Refer to this post here. Your problem might be related. As suggested by the user trying changing data type of column in data source.

2. Is there an RLS setting on this report, and if so, a role needs to be assigned to the user

Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI

3. The user also needs read access to the initial PBI dataset report, not just access to the dataset.
