    I think I've solved it. So it would appear that it is something to do with the permissions of the App itself, rather than Power BI Service.

     

    So what I did was to go to the workspace, and then click on 'Update App' in the top right corner. On the page that loads up, I went to the 'Permissions' tab at the top and once that has loaded, there are options at the bottom of the page that look like the ones below.

    I simply selected the 'Allow all users to connect to the app's underlying datasets using the Build permission' and the ability to export for end users is available again.

     

    Hope that is useful for anyone else who is having the same problem. :)

Figured I should reply to this topic because inspite of all the settings referenced here being correct, the elipsys was still not vieawable on the web visual. In order to have the elipsys show up, you first have to select "Edit" on the page header, then you can select the elipsys from the necessary visual.  Once the export is complete, you can select "Reading View" on the header to switch back without having to select "Save".

before "Edit"

After "Edit"
