With the new updates in June-July 2019 reports have the ability to be copied to other Workspaces/Apps whereby Primary reports in the Primary Workspace/Apps share the same Dataset with the Secondary reports in the Secondary Workspaces/Apps. This is a very good feature that I love.

However, when it come to testing the Row Level Security (RLS) using the "Test As Role" option, the Primary Workspace/App is the only Workspace/App to "Test As Role", which means one cannot "Test As Role" the RLS in the Secondary Workspaces/Apps.

It would be nice if Shared Datasets across different Workspaces/Apps have the option to "Test As Role" RLS groupings in the Secondary Workspaces/Apps.

I hope I explained this well enough.

Thanks

Great idea. This could be enabled for roles that have no rules.
