Cancel power bi file

Unfortunately, if you sent the actual file via email, you cannot delete it remotely. If it was sent to the wrong person, you may need to request them to delete it manually.

Hi Husainsaud 

If you have mistakenly shared a Power BI file via email, you cannot directly delete the file from the recipient’s inbox, but you can take steps to prevent access if it was shared through a cloud service. If the file was attached directly to the email, the recipient will have a copy, and the only option is to request them to delete it. However, if you shared a link to a Power BI report hosted on Power BI Service (e.g., via OneDrive, SharePoint, or a shared workspace), you can revoke access by going to Power BI Service → Workspaces → Manage Permissions and removing the recipient’s access. If the file was shared via OneDrive or SharePoint, navigate to the file’s location, check its sharing settings, and remove external access. If the file contains sensitive data, you can also consider updating or deleting the dataset or report to ensure it is no longer accessible.
