Roles without filters
"Roles without filters" is one of the governance checks Auditabi runs on a Power BI semantic model. A security role exists with no table filter. It is a critical finding: it breaks refresh, returns wrong numbers or exposes data, so it should be fixed before publishing. Add a DAX filter on the securing dimension (Region, Entity, Manager) for every role, and test with View as.
What is detected
A security role exists with no table filter. Members of that role see the whole model — usually the opposite of what the role name promises.
Why it matters
Breaks refresh, returns wrong numbers, or exposes data. Fix before publishing.
How to fix it
Add a DAX filter on the securing dimension (Region, Entity, Manager) for every role, and test with View as.
