How to Disable Only PowerPoint Export in Power BI While Keeping PDF Enabled?
Hi Anishka00 - Unfortunately, in Power BI's tenant settings, the "Export report as PowerPoint presentation or PDF document" option is combined, and there is no direct way to disable only the PowerPoint export while leaving PDF export enabled.
Ref link:
Export Power BI embedded analytics reports API - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
Hope this helps.
Hi Anishka00
You cannot disable PowerPoint export while keeping PDF export enabled in Power BI tenant settings, as the option is combined under "Export report as PowerPoint presentation or PDF document."
Workarounds:
- Use Embed API: Restrict export options programmatically in embedded reports.
- Report Design: Add visual cues to discourage PowerPoint exports.
- Limit Access: Enable export only for essential users.
- Submit Feedback: Suggest this feature on the Power BI Ideas platform.
For now, control export permissions carefully or use APIs for more granularity.
