Export Data option not available for some users
Helper II'm experiencing a similar issue, I have users that could previously export data not even have the option.
My users have Full Power BI licenses with Read and Reshare permissions on each of the dashboards.
This seems to me to be a bug within the power BI Service as this has happend before. To fix it I simply Disabled then Reenabled Export Data in the Admin Portal.
Although this has now happend again and I can't fix it with the same method.
Please help!
The only way I found to enable the 'export data' option is to re-share the report (remove perms to specific groups or idividuals and then re-add perms) and this time select 'allow users to build new content using the underlying datasets'.
Looks like others have similar replies, need someone from Power BI team to confirm this behavior:
1. is it expected (and when did it change)?
2. any other way to enable export data?
3. if it's a bug what's the eta on fixing it?
4. is there any dependency on the client version used to build the reports (I suspect this may be part of this)?
