Download data from a report published on the web

Good afternoon

I have some reports published on the web and some users ask me if it is possible to download the data from the web link.

Greetings,

Jose Marti

Hi @Syndicate_Admin ,

By my search, export data is not supported in report published to web.

Reference: Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Additionally, when you use Publish to web, anyone on the Internet can view your published report or visual. Viewing requires no authentication. Before publishing a report, make sure it's okay for you to share the data and visualizations publicly.

If your user has a Power BI account, you can invite his as a guest user and share the report to him, then he can export data when the corresponding option is turned on.

Does anyone know what alternatives exist against publishing on the web that allow you to export data?

@Syndicate_Admin , on the visual you have the option to download, But it is usually disabled when we do publish to the web. Just check that out

Hello, and how can I activate it?.

For example, I upload this sheet:

And when they enter the link, there is no way that the tables that appear from data can be downloaded.
