    Hi JMZ

    In my scenario, a user belonging to my organization share a report with me, then I open this link with my Power BI Service Pro account, I can see the data and graph.

    When I click on the three dots on the visual, I can see the option of "export data", by this, I can ectract data from Power BI.

    Could you contact with the people sharing with you to make sure you given the right permission.

     

     

    Best Regards

Hi JMZ

Is this powerbi link sent to you from others and you can open it in a web browser?

Can you edit the data and graph?

 

Best Regards

    Hi! Thank you for your response.

    Yes, exactly. There are options to “Include, Exclude, Show data” when I click “exclude” the data gets removed from the graph and it changes in shape. Thats as far as editing goes.
