Advocate IUnable to open pbix
Hello.
I downloaded the .pbix file that my colleague uploaded to SharePoint.
When I try to open the file, I get the following error.
This file is restricted
Your organization has protected the file with a sensitivity label.
To request access, contact your team's Power BI admin.
How can I open and edit this file?
Hi Lora_0121
Seems like the file you're trying to open is protected with a sensitivity label.
As said in the message, try to contact your Power BI Admins. They can either remove the sensitivity label or grant you access to the file. If you're unsure who your Power BI admin is, it might be your IT department.
Also, check your permissions. If you know you have the correct permission double-check you are logged in with the correct account.
