I have a simple PowerBi dashboard based on an MS List. I have noticed that the delete and edit buttons are visible for users other than myself which is obviously quite a problem. There aren't any permission/share settings that I can see.
How can I hide these buttons from users?

The delete and edit buttons in a Power BI report are not controlled within Power BI but depend on the permissions set for the underlying Microsoft List. To hide these buttons for other users:
Adjust Microsoft List Permissions:
Share Power BI Dashboard Securely:
These steps will prevent unauthorized edits or deletions in both the data source and the Power BI interface.

Hi @Poojara_D12 , I unfortunately cannot see any share settings/button in the PowerBI dashboard itself, and further if I go to my workspace I also cannot see this dashboard there. I wonder if this is because of how the dashboard has been created?
From the MS List I have clicked on: Integrate > Power BI > Visualise List
For the List permissions, at the moment I believe our users have edit access as they need to be able to submit a form which creates a new item in the List. If these permissions are removed I believe users would no longer be able to create new items.
Is there any other way this could be done?
