Power BI and SSAS Tabular allow you to use a setting to apply Row Level Security on relationships that are bi-directional, or filter both tables.  This feature is needed in TimeXtender's semantic layer.zvV_68EBpYaiOTUCjqVI4A.pngfCvGAXAxNyxh-C5m1jOz0w.png

We are having to use Visual Studio to build out our models instead of using TImeXtender because of this.  If this is available but hidden away in a menu somewhere, it would be great to know!

We have some customers in the need of this functionality as well, mainly because of GDPR-reasons. Would be great if this is possible.


We have the same problem. Company needs a strict RLS and the default code for user security filter that TimeXtender generates slows down reports too much. At the same time there is no way to have an alternative solution if you want to continue developing in TX.
In other words we need to have a control over SecurityFilterBehaviour on the relationships in Semantic layer same way as we now can define Filter Direction in TX that refers to CrossFilterBehaviour
