username() return NULL on publish service

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone:

I have a problem showing user in power bi publish service. 

I create an measures with DAX sencence:

UsuarioP = USERNAME()

usuarioFilter = LEFT(USERNAME();SEARCH("@";USERNAME())-1)

That measures in web desktop shows data OK:

UsuarioP show "user@....."

usuarioFilter show "user"

But after publish to the web, both shows NULL values.

Thank you!

@Anonymous hello, it happens when you publish it and use the Public Link, is the case?

when you use the Link inside the service with an user, aways will appear for you.

Hi @Anonymous You can duplicate some of your reports and apply a report filter.
