    Hi reddy421 ,

     

    If a workspace member has edit permission, their modification applied to workspace reports would affect to other members. Rather than directly changing original reports, you can ask them to make a copy (File->Save as) of the original report, then, edit that duplicated one. Alternatively, you can ask them to download the .pbix file locally, update reports in desktop, then publish the new report to their "My workspace".

     

    Best regards,

    Yuliana Gu

Hello jdbuchanan71 

Thank you for your time.

Thanks for showing me how to share the report only but is there a way they can edit the report only for them?

As I said If they don't like the data to see in Pie Charts but If they want to see using Clustered Bar charts then what is the best way?

Not that I am aware of, no.  You could create bookmarks with the different visuals stacked and only one visable so they could switch from the default (say pie chart) to a bar chart but you could end up with a lot of different bookmarks all of which would need to be maintained.

You are better off picking the right visual for the data and sticking with it.  Take a look at this article for instance.  https://www.kdnuggets.com/2019/06/how-choose-visualization.html
