    Row-level security enabled by roles for datasets feature released in March 2016. is great but a manual process. It should be enabled via Rest API too. That would allow synchronization of user roles with custom applications automatically.

    We’ve acknowledged it and we want to do it but we don't have a timeline to share yet

    GUI is an easy way, but it is prone to mistakes. Users/Groups should be able to assigned by APIs, PowerShell, etc. This is a required feature, especially if there are a lot of users.

    Thanks for the feedback. We're discussing this internally and once we have an update we'll circle back. We definitely wanted to start by making sure that we got the feature rock solid and then we'll move into providing other ways of managing/configuring this!

    Cheers,
