How could I disable some data sources to get data?

‎09-20-2019 12:11 PM

I want to disable some data sources.
For example, I want to make the only to input data is connecting to Excel and block all other ways to get data.
Is there a way to do that? 
Thanks.

Hey,

 

unfortunately there is no way to restrict the available data sources, and it's more than likely that with each new release of Power BI desktop there will also be new data sources.

 

Regards,

Tom
