    Hi ldm40,

     

    >>Can someone please what type of account set up would be best for this?

    For your requirement, you need Global Admin permission to access admin portal to control export and sharing settings. I don't think premium license is required.

     

    How to get to the admin portal

    Your account needs to be marked as a Global Admin, within Office 365 or Azure Active Directory, or have been assigned the Power BI service administrator role, to get access to the Power BI admin portal. For more information about the Power BI service administrator role, see Understanding the Power BI admin role. To get to the Power BI admin portal, do the following.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I now have access.

 

Is there a way to disable the export data for certain visuals? It looks like the only way to disable this feature is to disable users from having this option at all (either the entire organisation or specific security groups).
