In the previous article, I explained how to implement a dynamic row-level security pattern when you have a value that you want to exclude. However, what if you want to EXCLUDE at some scenarios and INCLUDE in some others? What if you want to have a role saying access to everything but New Zealand, and Read more about Dynamic Row-Level Security in Power BI with Exclude and Include Rules[…]
Sometimes when you apply the dynamic row-level security, you want to have the criteria as NOT EQUAL and NOT IN. This can be a bit tricky in the dynamic implementation of RLS, because the relationship behavior is normally the opposite. In this article I’ll explain how you can do that. Introduction I have written many Read more about Dynamic Row-Level Security in Power BI with NOT IN or NOT EQUAL Rule[…]
I have written some articles on the RLS topic already. Through my consulting experience, however, I get the feeling that many people can’t easily move from static RLS to dynamic. If you know what are things you need to have the dynamic RLS implemented, it makes the whole process simple. So this is what I Read more about What Do You Need to Implement Dynamic Row-Level Security in Power BI?[…]
In my previous article/video, I explained how you can hide sensitive data from the user’s view. The method I explained there is a simple method, however, for a specific type of user. If you have users who are using Power BI Desktop to create reports on top of your model, and they are going to Read more about Secure the Sensitive Data in Power BI; Data Masking better with Row-Level Security[…]
I wrote several row-level security articles so far, and a book. I explained how to restrict access to the data using row-level security approaches. However, one of the questions I got recently is this: “I want users to see one another’s sales information, but not to see who others are! How can I do that Read more about Show the information but not the details: Power BI Data Masking[…]
I have written a dozen of blogs and a book about Power BI row-level security and the security on the dataset. However, I always get this question that: “What if I want some people to see only a few pages of my report, and some others to see other pages?” or “How can I put Read more about Share Different Visual Pages with Different Security Groups in Power BI[…]
I have written dozens of articles about row-level security so far and explained in all of them explained different methods in which you can reduce the amount of data rows that a user can see based on their roles. However, in my presentations, I still get this question that: What if I want to compare Read more about Calculating Total, and Percentages in a Row-Level Security Power BI Model[…]
In the previous post, you learned about the challenge of security when Implementing it using multiple positions scenario combined with organizational hierarchy. We started to implement the solution using DAX in row level security. This post is the second part of the solution. Prerequisite The sample dataset for this example can be downloaded from here.

I have written previously about Dynamic Row Level Security, and some of the patterns of it. Two of the most common patterns that I explained were; Organizational Hierarchy, and Many to Many situations of users and profiles. Recently I came across a couple of questions, which persuaded me to write about another pattern of dynamic Read more about Dynamic Row Level Security in Power BI with Organizational Hierarchy and Multiple Positions in Many-to-Many Relationship – Part 1[…]
