Advocate IVHow to restrict Power BI report developers from editing a semantic model in Microsoft Fabric?
hi .. what i had done was --
adding the user in security group for creation of fabric objects.
Through this he was able to view the semantic model from pbi desktop, while getting access to create fabric objects on trail capacities(unavoidable as of now).
atleast the user doesnt have access on fabric production capacity, that way there will beno billing.
Super UserHi Anusha66,
I wanted to follow up here andsee if you got a solution?
If a user is granted contriubtor in the workspace, that will override any semantic model permissions, so the suggestion to move the reports into a new worksapce where the users have contriubtor, and then only granting them read and build on the semantic models should be a good approach.
If you found this helpful, consider giving some Kudos. If I answered your question or solved your problem, mark this post as the solution.
Advocate IVHi, here the intent is to allow the user to create reports on Semantic Model while restricting them edit access.
1. I have provided view access to the Workspace containing Semantic Model.
2. providing build permissions on Semantic Model
But The user is unable to access the Semantic Model without including them in creating Fabric Objects. when including them here, user is able to view the Semantic Model from PBI Desktop and was able to create reports. But this also gave the user access to creating all fabric Objects, which we dont want at this point.
