How to unlock "Analyze in Excel" for external users?

Hi everyone.

Faced a problem of providing such functionality as export to excel file with "Analyze in Excel" for external users.

Users in the organization's domain can do it without any problem, but for others this button is disabled.

Tried to give different access to the data set for these users but it didn't help.

Is there any way to unlock it?

Hi. I'm sorry but guest external users can't use that feature. I have found it in the following doc
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/service-admin-azure-ad-b2b#considerations-and-limita...

I hope that helps,
