write access in powerbi services

Hi Team, Need to understand what this "Write" access will do in PowerBI services. Will it give user access to write to DB?

The write permission is to do this:

1.Allows user to republish the dataset.

2.Allows user to backup and restore the dataset.

3.Allows user to make changes to the dataset via XMLA.

4.Allows user to edit dataset settings, except data refresh, credentials, and automatic aggregations.

For more information, you can check this documentation below:

Hope this helps you.
