dataset permisiones

I have a power bi proyect, i set up permisions for viewer, but when user login to see the reporte, says 'contact your administrador',  i set up permissions to collaborator, the user access the report fine.

The problem is dataset permisions, visor is not allow to read datasets.

How do allow the user access datasets and not  change data?

My client   is using pro user for accesing the data.
Any idea?

Hi Xiaoxin,
I think I have not explained well.
I would like to know, if there is any quick and easy way to extract in a file, all users that have permissions to edit/read/whatever for all PBI reports.
Thank you!

Hello,
I would like to know if there is any way to obtain the data of all the user permissions of the different reports.
I mean, the only way to know who has permission to view the reports, is through the "Advance" of "Manage Permissions" of each report?

Thank you!

Hi @jaltami,

You can configure the dataset permission to 'read', then these users can only view these contents and not able to edit. (notice: please also turn off the 'build' and 'share' options)

Build permission for shared datasets - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

BTW, power bi is a reporting tool used to design share visualization reports, it does not include writeback features to affect the source data.
Regards,

Xiaoxin Sheng
