How to disable excel export of certain paginated report?

Hello,

 

I am trying to disable the export to excel functionality of certain paginated reports. I know that we can disable the excel export option from admin tenant settings but in that case that will disable all the Power BI Reports and Paginated Reports. I have a use case where I want to disable the excel export functionality for certain paginated reports. Is there a way to achieve this? 

 

Please let me know.

 

Thanks.

HI @fareed221 ,

 

In the Admin Portal, there is only an "on/off" type option.  However, in the Report Builder, for the report itself there is a "on/off" option.  But, I think that it is only on/off and not a "can't use Excel to export" option.

Hey @fareed221 ,

 

My second sentence missed a critical work there is "NOT" a way I know of in Report Builder itself to turn it on or off.  However, you can do this to remove the capability:
