    Hi HangLTP,

     

    We understand that the current approaches do not fully meet your requirements. As of now, Power BI Report Server (PBIRS) does not provide a direct, built-in option to disable the commenting feature completely.

    As a best practice, we recommend submitting a feature request through the official Microsoft Fabric Ideas portal:

    Fabric Ideas - Microsoft Fabric Community

     

    This ensures that your requirement reaches the product development team for consideration in future updates.

     

    I hope this suggestion helped! please mark it as "Accept as Solution" and give us Kudos to assist others.

    Feel free to ask any further questions if have. 

    Thank you.

Hi HangLTP,

Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community forum.

 

Yes, you can disable the comment feature for all users in Power BI Service. Previously, this might have been done via database settings, but Microsoft has moved most administrative controls to the Power BI Admin Portal.

Navigate to the Admin Portal and go to Power BI Service then Click on Admin Portal, Tenant Settings

After that look for options related to Commenting, if available, disable comments globally or restrict them to specific users.

 

For additional guidance, you can refer to these discussions in the Microsoft Fabric Community:

If this solution worked for you, kindly mark it as Accept as Solution and feel free to give a Kudos, it would be much appreciated!
