Export underlying data option disabled

What could be the reason the export underlying data option is disabled? I have exhausted all options, checked the report setting for allow user to export underlying data etc. Even imported just one simple table with three columns - to no avail. The same workspace allows export of underlying data from other reports.

I found out the reason - needed to add an aggregate (I just used countrows) to the table to enable export underlying data. 

Not sure if this is introduced recently.

In the Power BI Service Admin portal->Tenant settings, make sure that the "Export data" option in the "Export and sharing settings" section is enabled

 

Thanks,
