    I faced similar issue with Table visual. Issue is because of header Icon was 'off' for the table in Format section.

Hey dchen ,

 

if you can or cannot export the underlying data depends if the user has the build permission:

Build permission for shared datasets - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

 

The permission can be set by user individually or by AD group.

Also be aware that you can disable the export in the report itself:

 

 

So you might have to check both options.

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
 
Best regards
Denis

I am havving the same issue, its not a report setting issue as its only happening on certain visuals while other visuals are working find and the user can export as needed. In the report settings, the user are 'Allowed'  to export and summarize. 

 

How can on the same report and tab, one visual displays the export/ellipses/focus mode options when one hoovers the cursor while anothe visual does not ?

      Hello safifaruqi 

       

      If it is a custom visual then you have to contact the builder and ask to allow the export option And all the visuals don't support the export data option.

        Hi NimaiAhluwalia  

         

        Thank you for the reply.  

         

        It is not a custom visual and I can see the option to export et al. in the PBIX file just not in the webservice only for specific visuals.
