User Based Security in Power BI (Power Pivot / Power View)

I am looking for a way to implement User based security (based on user access needs to restrict data) for my Power BI reports. Is there any way implement this kind of security. We have this support in traditional OLAP cube by creating roles and manage them
at different dimensional data.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hello,
You want to implement this functionality using the Power BI Preview or using the Power BI reports integrated in an application?

  • Users cannot save a Power View report to thier One Drive Site

    I have users that have only access to a sub site where public BI reports are kept.   They want to open a public report, modify it and then save it on their personal sharepoint site.   The problem is when I open a power view report then
    edit it then do a save as it does not have the "Sites" option in the list to click on so they can then click on the Social site and save it to their site.  Instead it only has the Subsite.  Example power users can see this
    Sites
       http://companyportal
        BusinessIntelligenceCenter  (site)
           SalesBI (site)
              Reports (folder)
                 Public folder (folder)
    The users in question only see  Sales BI and down.  With power users we save reports to our personal sharepoint by clicking on sites and then selecting as example
    http://companysocial/personal/ken_craig site.  then drilling down to where to save it.  I the save as dialog box it does not allow typing in it and does not allow you to select sites.  
    How to get Sites in the list so they can save reports and other docs to their personal sharepoint site.

    Wendy,
    I am sure it is permissions but that is my questions how do I give the correct permissions so they can do this.  Again I do not want these users to be able to save anything on the subsite.  I want them to be able to save things on their own personal
    site (onedrive). 
    I have added a screen shot 1 of the Save AS window I receive and others who are power users.  The "Sites" is the top menu item I have in this window.  When I click on sites (power users) I can see things like
    http://eagleviewsocial which is how I would get to my personal site (one drive).  Screen shot 2.
    The power users have "Visitors" permissions on the Business INtelligence Center site.  They then have Members permissions on the subsite like Client Relations BI or Sales BI depending on the group they are in. 
    My goal is to give power user the ability to make reports on their BI sub Site (Sales BI as example) and then Read ability on the top level site Business Intelligence Center.   The second group of people and majority will have Visitor or read only
    permissions on their group sub site only (Sales BI as example).  They will not be able to see the top level site Business INtelligence Center.
    IN all cases I  want them to be able to save reports (their own customer versions) to their own sites (One drive).  This way we do not clutter production sites with individual reports.

  • Dynamic Security - Power View Cabable of ?

    Hi there,
    i am currently trying to create some Dashboard Reports using Power View for all Employees.
    But i can't allow for any Users being able to see the Data of the other.
    Is Power View capable of Determining which user is logged on and give that to my Tabular Project, so it can filter the data through the Dynamic Security implemented in the Tabular Model?

    Yes, Power View will work with the tabular model dynamic security.  Power View does not do anything special, security is applied by the model.

  • In an iPhone 3GS (or 4G), can a user configure the WiFi power-save to extend battery life?

    In an iPhone 3GS (or 4G when I upgrade), can a user configure the WiFi power-save operation to extend the battery life?  For example:  Can a user turn on/off WiFi power-save operation?  Can a user specify WiFi sleep duration?  Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

    Yikes!   Thanks, Templeton.  Do WiFi app programmers have control over power-save settings?  For example, can a first VoIP app be more energy-efficient than a second VoIP app?

  • Power Pivot Field list in not displayed in Power Pivot-Ribbon / Missing Power View-Ribbon

    Hi
    I've got the following probem, when I add a Pivot Table from inside the Power Pivot Data Model I only get the ordinary Pivottable Field list.
    When I look into the Power Pivot Ribbon there is
    no 'Field list' inside the ribbon. Not even a disabled one (grey) is visible.
    And there's another problem, I miss the Power View-Ribbon, there is nothing available in the ribbon, although the Power View-AddIn is activated.
    My configuration
    Windows 7 - 64 bit
    Office 2010 - 32 bit incl. Power Pivot - everything with Power Pivot works fine
    Excel 2013 - 32 bit incl. Power Pivot - here's the missing Power Pivot Field list / Power View-Ribbon
    Does anyone has an idea for a solution? Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards
    Joerg

    There is no ribbon for Power View in Excel 2013, you need to go to INSERT tab > Power View Reports. Once you insert a Power View Report, you will see the Power View tab.
    To answer your first question about PowerPivot, It is called PivotTabel Field List and it is not under PowerPivot tab, once you click on PivotTable, you should see at the top PIVOTTABLE TOOLS with Analyze and Design tabs.

  • Shared Calendars / Room Lists and automatically forcing them to users based on Security Group Membership

    Good morning all,
    I need some help achieving the following in our Exchange 2013 Environment.  First off, we have Exchange 2013, but all our clients have Outlook 2010.
    Here's what I would like to be able to do:
    1) create/manage public calendars / rooms in exchange 2013
    2) force these shared public calendars / rooms to users' calendars who are members of particular security groups
    3) give edit permissions / "booking" permissions for the shared calendars so select users are able to make changes to the shared calendars, as well as accept/deny requests to "book" shared room calendars
    Any one got any resources they can give to point me in the right direction?
    I have already created two mailbox room resources, and have them set up in a room list in AD.  But need to know the above as far as creating a shared calendar for events, and forcing these calendars / room lists out to users based on security group
    membership.
    I don't want my users to have to know how to add a shared calendar...that would be a nightmare explaining.  I just want it to show up.
    Any help on this is greatly appreciated, thank you!

    1) I recommend using Room Mailboxes for resource calendars because it just works better.
    2) This is a standard feature of a Room Mailbox.
    3) You're pretty specific here, but I think this is also more or less available with a Room Mailbox combined with folder rights.
    I don't know any way to just make them "show up".  You'll have to teach them.  Well written instructions can work wonders.

  • How to do data level security on users based on region

    Hello guys
    I currently have created a report with dashboard prompt on column "state" with a default value "CA"
    Now, the requirement is to perform data level security on this report, so different users based out of different state will log in to the dashboard and this prompt will change its default value accordingly so the user will have the report on only users home state prompted, and users can't see other state data..
    I have thought of creating session variables to achieve the same, but how should i set up the initialization string?
    Do I need to create a new table called "user table" that stores username/password and state columns and make that user table join to the fact table in the db?
    If so, how should I configure the session value so that users get filtered date based on its state location?
    PLease provide guidance
    Thanks

    Here’s an idea off the top of my head (untested):
    First, set up your security constraints normally using Manage…Security in the Administration Tool, so that each user can only see his/her state. Refer to the previous responses to this post for guidelines.
    Then, in your dashboard prompt, for the “Default Value”, write a tiny bit of logical SQL to query the “state” column from the presentation layer. If your security constraints are properly in place, the SQL should only return one value.
    To get an idea of what the logical SQL should look like, select “All Values” as the default value, then switch it to ‘SQL Results’. That will show you the basic format of the logical SQL. It’s really just normal SQL (select <this> from <that> where <the other>), but referring to presentation layer objects rather than to physical tables and columns.
    Untested. Please reply back and let us know how it goes.

    Hi Aditya,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I am using Enterprise edition of SharePoint 2013 only. SQL Server 2012 SP1.
    I have configured Reporing Services also successfully. I got "Reporting" folder in "15" hive location "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices"
    SSRS Service application also i have created success in CA Manage Service Application.
    I have done "Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint" also which is "rsSharePoint.msi".
    What should i do apart from this? Can you tell me. Its frustrating like anything.

  • Reseeding cache for users with role based security

    I have role based security and trying to set up cache by purging all cache and later seeding cache by query. The query would be different for different users. What is the best way to purge all cache and reseed cache for administrator as well as all users. The EPT would purge cache based on updated tables. But how do I next go about reseeding cache for better performance to all the users. Thanks.

    I have created an ibot with the following:
    General - Normal Priority, Personalized (recipient's data visibility)
    Conditional Request - example_report
    Schedule - some schedule
    Recipients - Me(administrator) and User1
    Destinations - Oracle BI Server cache
    when the ibot runs 2 cache entries are created (for the 2 recipients).
    I have the report (example_report) on the dashboard (1 dashboard, 1 page, 1 report).
    After the ibot runs:
    When the administrator logs in first, there is a cache hit on the report. Followed by when the User1 logs in there is NO cache hit.
    On the other hand when the User1 logs in first, there is a cache hit on the report. Followed by when the administrator logs in there is no cache hit. The query log creates a Query issued to the database instead of cache hit on query.
    The User1 has a data level security.
    Please let me know where was I making an error in setting the ibot and how to get the cache seeding work for the different users with different role based security.
    Thanks for your inputs.

  • Power View / Power Pivot Enhancement Request: Allow a value to be associated with a consistent color

    Just like you can specify a "sort by" column in SSAS tabular, allow the ability to specify a "rendering color" column with a hex value. We've had many requests to associate a certain value in reports with a consistent color.

    Hi TheNotoriousBLG, 
    Based on my understanding, you want to specify color for the values in the power view report.
    Power View is an interactive data exploration, visualization, and presentation experience that encourages intuitive ad-hoc reporting. We can easily create a report by selected expected fields, however, there is no feature for us to customize font color or
    background setting within the Power View report. So for your requirement, it can’t be achieved currently. Please refer to link below:
    No Customization of font color or Background setting in power view report using Office 2013
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

    Hi Kenny_I,
    Based on the error message, the issue may be caused by the incorrect configuration of Claims to Windows Token Service (C2WTS). The C2WTS is required because the communication between the web front-end (WFE) and the Reporting Services shared service will
    always be Claims authentication.
    The domain account used by the Claims to Windows Token Service needs to be granted the following rights through the Local Security Policy:
    Act as part of the operating system
    Impersonate a client after authentication
    Log on as a service
    We can find these settings under Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy > Local Policies > User Rights Assignment. And we should add the service account to the local Administrators Groups ahead.

  • How create animated power view reports using sharepoint list as a data source in sharepoint 2010?

    Hi All,
    I got a client requirement to create reports using SharePoint List as data source. The report should show reflection depends on values changed (I mean animation).
    I have heard about the power view/power pivot which does this kind of animations in reports.
    Can someone please guide me on creating reports which shows animations
    In power view/power pivot using SharePoint List as data source in SharePoint 2010.
    Thanks in advance.
    MercuryMan

    Hi MercuryMan,
    Yes, Power View, a feature of SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 or SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Edition, is an interactive data exploration, visualization, and presentation experience.
    It provides multiple views featuring tiles, slicers, a chart filter, and a number of visualizations, including cards, small multiples, and a bubble chart. So, we can use Power View to do intuitive ad-hoc reporting for business users such as data analysts, business
    decision makers, and information workers.
    Currently, Power View report only supports two types of data models: PowerPivot Worksheet, and data models based on Analysis Services Tabular Model or Multidimensional Cube.
    In your scenario, you can create PowerPivot worksheets using SharePoint List as data source, deploy the PowerPivot worksheet to a SharePoint Library or PowerPivot Gallery, and then generate Power View reports based on the PowerPivot worksheets on the SharePoint
    site.
    To use SharePoint List as data source in Excel PowerPivot, you can refer to the following resource:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/excel_services__powerpivot_for_sharepoint_support_blog/archive/2013/07/11/excel-services-using-a-sharepoint-list-as-a-data-source.aspx 
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh230322.aspx 
    To create a Power View report based on PowerPivot model, you can refer to the following links:

  • Power View Enhancement Request - Allow for columns to drop off PowerView when column name changes in data model instead of rendering the PowerView inaccessible

    Currently in PowerView, if a column name changes in the tabular model, and that column is being used in a PowerView chart, the PowerView will become inaccessible.
    It would be nice if it functioned similar to Pivot Table. If a column name changes for a column that is being used in a Pivot Table, the field is just removed from the chart, and the user can select the newly named column. 

    Hi plantm,
    After testing the issue in my environment, I can reproduce it. After we change a column name which is used in a Power View chart, Power view will render the message that” The external data connection has been disabled for this Power View report. Please enable
    the connection.” when we reopen the file.
    To fix this issue, we can click Refresh button under POWER VIEW menu, then it would prompt us that” Power View was not able to complete the action due to a query failure. This can happen if the structure of your data has changed, in which case closing and
    re-opening the application will resolve the problem.”
    According to the error message, we should try to reopen the file to fix this issue. Power view will render the message that” Please refresh to see the data for this Power View Sheet. You can set properties in the Connection Properties dialog so that the
    data refreshes automatically when you open the file.” when we reopen the file. Then we can refresh it again, the report will be displayed without that field.
    Based on my research, inherently what the message means is that Power View cannot be used as a tool for snapshot reporting. With an Excel PivotTable, we can see the data last saved in the PivotTable. Power View, however, does not behave the same way – it
    won’t render the last saved state. If we want to avoid this message when we reopen the file, there are two methods:
    When we create the Power View report, we can select the checkbox that “Refresh data when opening the file”.
    After it’s been set up, go to Connections on the Data menu, then choose Properties.
    For more details about the settings, we can refer to the following blog:
    http://www.sqlchick.com/entries/2013/3/30/creating-a-power-view-report-in-excel-2013-which-uses-an-ext.html

  • Power view in SharePoint - Changing the default save location?

    Is it possible to change the default location when saving Power view back into SharePoint?
    Our users are creating their own power view reports by clicking a power view shared data source in SharePoint document library.
    When saving their reports, the default location is always the same location where the data source is. This is described here also:
    https://support.office.microsoft.com/en-us/article/Power-View-in-SharePoint-Server-Create-save-and-print-reports-f616575e-02bf-46cd-b94a-b744245ef9d1?CorrelationId=a852221e-b063-4020-a20a-53d8e8fb8b8b&ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
    Quote from the link: "The first time you save the
    report, the default location will be the folder where the model is located."
    Ok, understood. But is it possible to change this???

    Hi again
    Ouch! Not the network!
    One of the hard learned issues that folks are unaware of until they encounter problems is that Captivate does not do well when a project is stored on a network. It's fine to keep projects there in order to back them up or as a transfer pivot location to allow others to edit, but you never want to open Captivate, click File > Open and browse to a network location to open a project for editing.
    Best practice at this point is to keep projects on your local C drive when you make edits.
    Cheers... Rick
