    When troubleshooting the new "audiences" feature of apps, it would be great if (as an admin) you could select which audience to view as. This would make it much easier to reproduce exactly what an end user is seeing.





    Thanks,



    Scott

    Please bring the testing of row-level security to the APP level.



    I love the new app deployment interface with "Audiences" but I want to be able to "preview" the app, in it's entirety, as a specific person or role.

    Until today, I can test access for a Dataset or a Report on a Workspace.But I don't have the possibility to test if a User has all necessary permissions or group memberships to access a App.Please add a Test Button to impersonate a User, like the possibility to do it for any dataset and report.Thank you

    Impersonate an users on Power BI portal in order to see what that person can see. This is to improve explorability and user experience

    Agree, this would help a lot in verifying end user experience without having to engage the users

    Hi Scott,I really feel lack of features that would provide such a functionality. Keeping fingers crossed for this to be added! Regards,Michal
