Consultation regarding disabling shared links and making reports private

Hi Tome_05  ,

We sincerely appreciate your inquiry on the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

Disable Public Access: Go to report settings > "Manage permissions" > remove "Anyone with the link" access to disable public sharing.

Keep Report Without Deleting: Disabling the link keeps the report in Power BI but restricts access.

Future Management Suggestions:

Use dedicated workspaces with limited access for internal/reference reports.

Avoid using "Publish to Web" for sensitive or temporary content.

Create a copy of the report in another workspace if public sharing is temporarily needed, then delete or unpublish it later.
If you find our response helpful, we kindly request you to mark it as the accepted solution and provide kudos. This will assist other community members facing similar queries.
Thank you.

Hi Tome_05

Yes, you can disable public report links in Power BI Service by going to Settings > Manage permissions and removing access for "Anyone with the link."

To keep reports private but still accessible internally, could you please try below steps

• Move the report to a restricted-access workspace

• Switch from “Publish to web” to “Embed in SharePoint or Teams” for internal sharing

• Temporarily unlist the report and re-enable when needed

Also, if the report was shared accidentally or needs tighter control, removing the public link will immediately block access.
