Hello everybody!
I have a couple of questions that I could not find any answers from the Internet.
I am working with a high sensitive data. Therefore, I should "hide" them from my clients. So, nobody should see the actual data. They should only see the visuals.
1- There is an option that called "Analyze in Excel" when I share my dashboard with clients. I would like to disable this feature.
2- I have tried to "publish" a map to the web. When hitting right click, there is an option "see records" which shows all data again. I would like to disable the right click or "see records" feature when I publish something.
Thank you!

Hi @burak
To answer the Question 1,
You can disable the analyze in excel in admin portal, You have to have admin rights for this.
For Your Question 2
Currently, There is no direct way to disable see records but before publishing from power bi desktop if you right click columns and hide them then they won't appear under See Records. Alternatively if possible, you change connection based on directquery rather than import and you won't get See records options. You can select which one is prefrred method.
