Export Data with current layout does not work anymore

Hello,

We were able to export data with current layout from bar chart for example, but not anymore (it is written that this export is only available for tables and matrix).

I can export data from bar chart in Power BI Desktop but not anymore on Power BI Service.

Does anyone has a clue on this ?

Thank you

Hi  @Anonymous ,

The option to export data requires edit permissions on datasets and reports.

  • To export the data from a visual, you need to have Build permission for the underlying dataset.
  • Export using Underlying data won't work if:
    • the version is older than 2016.
    • the tables in the model don't have a unique key.
    • an administrator or report designer has disabled this feature.
  • Export using Underlying data won't work if you enable the Show items with no data option for the visualization Power BI is exporting.

Please refer to the following document to see if there are other possibilities. https://docs.microsoft.com/power-bi/visuals/power-bi-visualization-export-data
