    UPDATE: I found a setting to limit the live embed in the screenshot above. The setting is Enable Power BI add-in for PowerPoint, which can be disabled.

Thank you, I am already an admin. I was looking for a way to disable the live report embeds inside PowerPoint, when exporting. Is there a way to do that?

 

Thanks!

Hello sba_ur ,

If you only want to allow image export and not ‘Embed live data’, this is not possible at the moment.



The workaround is to disable PowerPoint export for certain users in the admin portal (but they will no longer be able to export ‘As image’).

The other solution is to leave it as it is. In any case, anyone who does not have direct access to the semantic model (e.g. distribution via PowerBI App) will not be able to do anything more than what they are authorised to do in the App.

Please feel free to give me a kudo and validate my answer as the solution if it suits you.
