    Go to Power BI Admin Portal >> Tenant Settings and disable specific features (e.g., Web, Python, R, Share to web) or restrict them to security groups.Use Microsoft Purview / DLP policies to block data movement between connectors, but note that not all Power BI connectors appear in DLP yet, so coverage is limited.

Hi rohit1991,

 


thank you for your quick response. Could you please provide more information on how I can disable these connectors in the Tenant Settings? Do you mean the Power Plattform Admin Center? All the instructions we’ve found so far are out of date, and the connectors we wanted to disable for testing purposes weren’t available for selection in the DLP policy.
