Export data function Missing on new Reports

Hi there,
 
In our organization we have noticed that new reports have lost the functionality to export.
These report are configured to enable the user to be able to export summerized and undelying data and also I have contacted my PowerBI administrators and they have confirmed that the "tenant settings" are set up properly (as I have seen in other post).

For reports published a month ago this functuonality is still available. Any ideas of what might cause the issue?
 
Other information:
  • Premium workspace
  • All documents are configured to enable user export
  • Admin has confirmed that the export function is enable
  • We have tried to deployed the same reports to a new workspace and the issue persists
  • We have tried to set up the documents to use the old "Header" style and had no impact

Thank you all in advance.

    Hi Anonymous 

    According this new feature and this official document,  i'm afraid

    1.

    if the reports are included in an App, users view them by the shared Apps,

    the "export data" would be disabled when you remove the "Build" permission for this user in this dataset,

    2.

    If the reports are in App workspace, users consume them via App workspace,

    the "export data" would be disabled when users only have read permission.

    3.

    If the reports are published from Power BI Desktop,

    when you select "don't allow..." in Power BI Desktop, users will have no options to export data.

    Please read more limitations here:

    Some important notes:

    Export data isn't available for users outside of your organization who are using a dashboard that an internal user has shared with them.

    Export using Underlying data won't work if:

    • The data source is an Analysis Services live connection.

    • The version is older than 2016.

    • The tables in the model don't have a unique key.

    • If an administrator or report designer has disabled this feature.

     

    Best Regards
