Hi,irnm8dn  I am glad to help you.
Hello,PijushRoy ,thanks for your concern about this issue.

Your answer is excellent!
And I would like to share some additional solutions below

You could try setting up RLS in the report, which sets data access restrictions directly on the dataset used by the report. By implementing RLS, you can ensure that users only see data that is relevant to them, even if they export the underlying data. This doesn't limit the export functionality itself, but rather controls what data is visible to the user.
If you think RLS is a good reference solution, you can refer to the documentation below:

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

Best Regards,

Thank you, though I think I am looking for a different solution.  Specifically, when an end user exports underlying data - I am looking to only allow them to see a subset of columns - not the ENTIRE dataset.

Thank you.
