You have a Fabric tenant that contains a semantic model. You need to modify object-level security (OLS) for the model. What should you use?

The correct answer is D. Tabular Editor. To modify Object-Level Security (OLS) for a Fabric semantic model, you must use an external tool like Tabular Editor, as this functionality is not available directly within Power BI Desktop or the Fabric service interface.

Why each option

To modify Object-Level Security (OLS) for a Fabric semantic model, you must use an external tool like Tabular Editor, as this functionality is not available directly within Power BI Desktop or the Fabric service interface.

Athe Fabric service

While semantic models reside within the Fabric service, the Fabric service user interface does not provide direct capabilities to modify Object-Level Security (OLS) settings.

BMicrosoft Power BI Desktop

Microsoft Power BI Desktop supports configuring Row-Level Security (RLS) but does not have a native user interface or built-in functionality for defining or modifying Object-Level Security (OLS).

CALM Toolkit

ALM Toolkit is primarily used for comparing and merging Power BI models or datasets and for managing application lifecycle, not for directly editing or applying Object-Level Security settings.

DTabular EditorCorrect

Tabular Editor is an advanced external tool specifically designed for editing tabular models, including those used for Fabric semantic models, providing granular control over metadata, including Object-Level Security (OLS).
