Export to Excel Pop‑Up Message in Inforiver - Clarification

Adhavan4U — Wed, 04 Feb 2026 11:34:48 GMT

This message "To avoid security or privacy risks, only download data from a visual if you trust the author and source"is a default notification that appears whenever a user selects the Export to Excel option. The Inforiver team does not have the ability to disable it. Only the Power BI (Microsoft) team can make changes to this behavior. Can anyone confirm do we have any other options to disable this warning pop-up message.

There is no supported way to disable or customize this warning as it is a custom visual that is not controlled entirely by Microsoft.

I appreciate your suggestions. Since I only have Member access, I’m not able to test the tenant-level settings in the Admin Portal—specifically the option “Allow downloads from custom visuals.”
I’m also not fully sure whether enabling this setting will resolve the issue.

It would be very helpful if you or someone with Admin access could check this setting and share your feedback.

Thanks for your support.
