I give the rule Viewer to my AD Group with few users.
All my users have access to the application and can see the data
Some users of this group (not all just 3 ) can't export data to excel the option one is desabled. (gray)
I don't understand with just 3 users can't export datas to excel
The parameter of my report alloxed export to excel.

Thx.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello @ShaunLeMouton,
Your Power BI Admin can disable export for specific security groups:
Admin Portal → Tenant Settings → Export and Sharing Settings → Export data
If this setting is enabled only for certain groups, those 3 users may fall outside the allowed list.
They’ll still see the report but the Export to Excel option will be greyed out.
✅ Ask your admin to confirm that the users’ AD group is included in the “Export data allowed for these groups” list.

Hope it will help !
Best regards,
Antoine
