Hi, dear community users!
I have 2 questions related to header icons in a matrix:
- I need to turn off the export data function in a matrix. Is it possible?
- I have tried to turn off the icons under header icons (everything but filter), but they still appear if I hover over the matrix.
Is it possible, how?
Thank you in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Alisea_MI
In your desktop you will keep seeing them anyway. However once you publish to Service all hiden/Turned Off icons will not appear.
Also Allowing or not Allowing the user to export data is controled by the Power Admin Center Administrator

@aj1973 Thanks a lot!
So is it possible to deny download to Excel för 1 report only or should it be turned off for all the reports in the Power Bi Service?
It is a permission per User or group of Users and or per Workspace... Ask the Power BI Administrator for more details.
You welcome
