Create a button that is only visible on Desktop

Is it feasible to create a button on PowerBI desktop which is not visible when the report is published on service? The same button should be visible when the user downloads the report from Service.

Hi,

I do as below :

create the measure and check if the user and userprincipalname are equal :

UsrVisable/Enable = if (USERNAME() <> USERPRINCIPALNAME(), 1, 0)
Then for the particular Button, I changed the Text and Icon color based on the formula(in Style property) and put that as a page color for disabled the button :
MahyarTF_0-1667288371484.pngMahyarTF_1-1667288426401.png

 

when you publish it in the server the button should disappeared (not shown)

 Thanks for your kudos and please mark it as a solution if it helps you
