Helper VPrevent export underlying data
RMV Yes. You can do this in Settings -> Admin Portal -> tenant settings -> Export Data
You can disable it for the entire tenant, or keep the functionality alive for a group of users while disabling it for others.
You need to be either an O365 admin or Power BI Administrator (Role applied by the O365 admin) in order to see "Admin Portal" under your Power BI settings (wheel icon) on the header.
RMVHi Anonymous & v-jiascu-msft,
I tried it, and the export function is not shown in the options.
Is there a way to still show the export function, but the prevented users are not able to export the underlying data, but still able to export the summarized data.
Thanks

Hi,
According to the official documents, "No-one can see or download the dataset." in shared dashboard. So users can export the summarized data. It seems that you can enable this function and it will satisfy your requirements.

Best Regards!

I only seem to have the ability to turn it on/off for the entire organization and would like to add in a specific group of users who can export data, is there some setting I have missed?
Thanks
Mike
Sorry I have had another look at this and found how to do this - Sorry to mess you about
Hi I have the same problem, I want to keep the option for the users to download summarised data but not underlying ones.
My main focus is the data tables; I want users to be able to download only the data & fields I have included in the table, not the fields I have excluded
Filters of course work fine
thanks
