Row-level security enabled by roles for datasets feature released in March 2016. is great but a manual process. It should be enabled via Rest API too. That would allow synchronization of user roles with custom applications automatically.

We’ve acknowledged it and we want to do it but we don't have a timeline to share yet

RE: REST API for managing roles of datasets

I fully agree that if we want to manage roles on data set we should have an API for that or may to propose it in the Power BI portal through an administration tool enabling the management of a huge number of roles for a large scale deployment.
This feature is powerfull but today it's difficult to deploy it.

RE: REST API for managing roles of datasets

Hi, It's realy a big effort to manage this point manually on large scale deployments. Is there any update?

RE: REST API for managing roles of datasets

I'm also interested with that because security is a blocking point.

As somebody else already said: This is really needed, any update on this will be helpful.

RE: REST API for managing roles of datasets

This is a pretty foundational thing that needs to be in the API, shocking it is not available.

'+1 to get this implemented. The ability to control RLS programmatically is imperative to achieving real automation.

D'oh! Not having this feature is causing us major pain. Please implement ASAP.
