In Power BI Desktop, you may update your sharing synonyms settings in the Q&A setup itself or within the Options dialog, under Data Load -> Q&A- > Share your synonyms with everyone in your org:

 

You can also update this setting in the ‘Dataset settings’ within Power BI Service:

 

Additionally, administrators may choose to disable Synonym sharing within the Admin Portal by navigating to Tenant settings -> Q&A settings.
