Locking down dashboards on a live connected Dashboard

I have a bit of a problem that I hope the community can assist me with.  We currently are publishing our dashboards via a Live connected SQL server to the power bi site.  When we shared the dashboard...

Hi John_R,

 

Currently, it's not supported to hide the Filters pane from the report. You can vote on this same idea: Hide filters for shared Reports or prevent user from changing filters.

 

Meanwhile, as Filters pane not available in shared dashboard, you can customize link for the dashboard visuals to prevent end user entering original report mentioned in my previous post.

Thank you for your response.  However, we do not see that option.  Is that because we are using a live connected database?

 

Please let me know.

      We do not see that option on our dashboards.  The set custom link and URL option are both greyed out.

        The custom link will be greyed out if you pin an entire report page as live tile (more than one tile) to the dashboard. The custom link is only availabe if you pin indivdual tile or visualization to the dashboard.

         

        I am also waiting the solution of this problem because users can click the shared dashboard to view all data and reports.

         

        The solution is very simple if dashboard has an option to hidden the Open Menu (three dots on the right top corner) and don't allow go to report.

         

        Any solutions? Why other people don't have this problem?
