Exporting of Underlying Data issue
- 2 years ago
Hi All,
Final post, having tried to copy/paste visuals in to a new tab, save, publish, this still did not allow the 3 dots to export data.
Something funky goes on with powerbi with permissions, I had to essentially completely re-create all the tables/visuals and save with the options to download enabled, then it works. (Note, you can copy existing buttons and cards over, since you're not exporting those)
If you're reading this and like me you have published a report which you set that people could not export data from, then you need to re-pubnlish it again after turning the options on to download, the ONLY fix is to fully re-create your entire tab (can be within the same report as I have found out) without copy/pasting your visuals over. Somehow copying those still stops them being able to be exported!
I think this really should be addresses by the powers that be to make it seemlessly work when changing permissions, it makes zero sense for the options not to work AFTER you have set them to not allow and re-puiblish the report.
Kind Regards
