No Copy visual button in Report View

Hello BI Community,

 

I have created a sales dashboard for my boss and shared the report view link with him, as you can see on the visual there is no copy button. I have checked in the BI icons section there is not copy visual to turn on/off. Could you please help me as currently he is taking screenshot of from report view link and then cropping the desired visual, its really frustrating.

Thanks for clarifying that. Publish To Web can't and I think it won't have the possibility to copy visual. You won't find a way to do it if you share the report like that.

I don't want to turn them off i want to turn it on, so my boss can copy the visual.

 

Ok let me completely explain it, the link i shared with my manager is embedded report (publish to web) from this link he can't copy the visual's but from BI service portal he can copy the visual and paste in the email or excel.

Hi. There are like 3 places that can turn this feature off. It can be controlled from Admin portal, Report Settings and Visual formatting settings. You can read more about them here:

Be sure all that is ok.

I hope that helps,
