Disable copy selection from report

Hi

 

i am sharing a URL of a Bi report, and i just understand that there is an option to "copy selection" of a table/ matrix from this report and export it to an excel for example.

is there any option to disable this option?

 

thank you

If you are a Power BI admin you can go to the admin portal (https://app.powerbi.com/admin-portal/tenantSettings). In "Tenant settings" are several options where you can adjust what user can or can't export.

This option does not disable the copy selection, and allows you to take the data to Excel, please can you deepen the subject?
