Managing the User Rights and Permissions in an App
Hello everybody!
I am currently working on an app that consolidates severall datasets and reports.
For now then I'm adding new Viewers I go through "Update up > Permissions" and then add them with the email.
I have seen that these viewers can also download the PBIX file.
Why is that so? How can I manage these permissions?
Is this something I do in Power BI Desktop with the roles? Or is this in Power BI Service?
Hi joshua1990 ,
Based on my test, I find that when you grant user "Viewer" in new workspace(Access), then create app and publish it , when user get this app and open the report, there is no download option
You could refer to best-practice-for-power-bi-workspace-roles-setup for details.
