Hello Guys,

Could you help me?

I'm using OLS Rules on my report and works very nice, but when I try to download I can't, the message bellow is to show:

Hi @VLincoln 

Currently, you will get error when you download report with OLS to the pbix file from PBI Service.

I have a test on OLS.

If I am a viewer the OLS will work. If I have edit permission, OLS doesn't work, like RLS.

If you want to download a report from Service, you couldn't be a viewer. So Object Row Level Security in your report doesn't work.( It needs you to be a viewer)

And I can download the report with OLS successfully if I am not viewer.

Please check the Considerations which may cause download error.
