Can you give end users accces to see what users see with a lower level Row level security?

Hi Power Bi community

I have a customer who has multiple level of row level security.
The people in the top of this orgnisation wants to see what their employees can see to check if everything works as it should.
Is it possible for me to give an end user acces to this?
I am thinking of a workaround where they log in with the other user's account on the browser and see if everything works as intended, but is their a smart way to do it?

You can impersonate other users to test RLS from the dataset's security settings, but of course to do that, you need a workspace role that has dataset access (Member and Admin I think). See my blog entry:

Thanks for the answer.
I think all I needed was to add the user as a member.
I will do a bit of testing and if it works I will come back and accept your post as a solution.
