Hi All
In my pbix semantic model I hid all the columns and measures that are not neccessary for the users who connect to the dataset.
how could I prevent users from showing them ?
meaning , is their is a way to diabale this option from the user side :
Thanks in advance
regards
That option is only accessible for developers that have the PBIX, not for users of the published report.
Hi @lbendlin
Thanks for your reply.
Yesterday I checked when I connected the shared dataset (I am not the owner of the dataset in the Power BI service) from the Power BI desktop, I can see the option is available.
I tried to find the Tenent setting but no luck. I am also interested to know the answer.
Could you look into it and suggest
Thanks

Only in Edit mode and only if you have sufficient permissions to edit the semantic model. It's a non-issue for regular report users.
