Hi All,
Thank you for the feedback. I was able to figure out the problem. Navigate to the below link and search for "Build Permission" and it will tell you how to navigate and adjust the setting.

I have same concern and challenge with the OP, that the current setup of Build Permission is too extensive and need to find a middle ground in terms of data access permission. What I (and I assume others) need is a middle configuration where users cannot build new reports on the dataset, cannot use Analyze-in-Excel function (same as building new reports), but can still use Export to Excel based on pre-configuered visuals. This way the developer can control what data granularity is available to the consumers.
This ties in to existing requests to disable Analyze-in-Excel feature specifically, and now expands into the broader scenario of Build Permission and shared datasets.
