Export Data No Longer an Option for Users?
It seems like some users in your organizaiton don't have the permisison on the underlying dataset.
When the content owner shares the content to this user, the "Allow users to build new content using the underlying datasets" was probably not checked.
To fix it, the owner can grant build permission to these users through manage permissions page of this underlying dataset.
For more informaiton, please read https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-datasets-build-permissions#build-permissions-for-shared-datasets
To clarify my understanding after reading that article; if a user is only permitted to a portion of the data set via RLS, they will only be able to export, and build on, still that filtered info from the data set, correct? They also will not be able to edit my published report, as Im assuming their building only "forks" my report so to speak.
For example, we have mortgage bankers who cannot have access to other mortgage bankers loans, so I just want to ensure that with build permissions they can't edit my published report, or export outside of what their RLS permits.
Thank you again for the help and clarification, it is much appreciated.
You are correct.
For users who have build permission on dataset that has RLS applied, they will be able to consume this dataset with RLS restriction. They will not be able to modify your report, but they will be able to build new report using this dataset with RLS restriction.
- Fantastic, thank you so much for help and clarification!! You rock.
Other option is that schedule an offline data set to distribute to the users that are allowed to have access to.
Like I do see here : https://audministrator.wordpress.com/2020/01/03/power-bi-export-data-set-to-csv-file-overcome-150000-record-limit/
