Hello:
We are embedding PBI into our custom application, and are allowing our external customers the ability to create/edit reports. Is there any way to configure the menu bar in edit/create mode to hide certain items? (Not sure exactly what the menu bar is called, but see screenshot for what I'm referring to)
There are some options we want to remove (hide) from our external users as they will ultimately confuse them.
For example, we're using Direct Query, and we don't want them to see the 'Q&A' option under the 'Buttons' drop down. It doesn't work with Direct Query, and we'd prefer to hide it so we don't get hit with lots of questions.
Any ideas/help is greatly appreciated!!
Hi I was lookingo for this same answer. Do you know if this can be possible?
Thanks!
