Hi everyone,
I would like to enable downloading the underlying data of a visual in Power BI Service, so I changed the settings for the report in the workspace:
While this work fine for me as I am able to export the underlying data now, my users are not able to. Below you will find a screenshot that one of them sent me:
Do you know what I did wrong?
Any feedback you can give me on this would be highly appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
It's important to note that if the Power BI admin portal settings conflict with the report settings for export data, the admin settings will override the export data settings.
Please check with the administrator whether the "export data" function is enabled for entire organization in the admin portal.
