Can I disable Visual Calculations from Embedded Reports?

Is there a way to disable visual calculations from embedded visuals so users cannot select them?

No I haven't @Anonymous  do you have an answer?

 

  @rajendraongole1 gave a link to some documentation but I didn't see anything in there that would disable the visual calculations yet.  So I am still looking for an answer.

@Anonymous , I'm not sure what else I can share than what I've already explained.  This link that was shared has a lot of cusotmizations on it.  But I don't see where I can disable visual calculations in embedded.  I would still want users to edit their reports.  Would just like the ability to disable visual calculations.  I'm assuming that's not available

Hi @Don-Bot ,

 

Based on my testing, it will only show this option in the report's edit mode.

It will not have this option in any of the embedded modes shown below.

So if you are seeing it in the report's edit mode, then try embedding it and it will no longer have this option. If you are using a method other than the one above, please let me know more details so that we can better help you with your problem.

Hi @Don-Bot - Yes, it is possible to disable certain interactive features, including visual calculations, in Power BI embedded reports.with the help of JavaScript API it is possible but it is not a direct disable option. 

Alternatively, If embedded reports don’t need interactivity, consider exporting them to formats like PDF or static images for embedding, ensuring no calculations or interactions are possible.
