Remove share item

Good afternoon people!

I work in a organization where data can not be exposed.
So I would like to remove this item. `

@pfr1992 Idea behind publish to web option is to let you share your report with anyone without authentication that has the link. I don't think there is any option available that can let you have those links removed. If your data is sensitive you should not use publish to web.

Hi pfr1992,

 

If you mean the share icon under Publish to Web, currently it is not possible.

Here I agree with the point shared by ankitpatira.

In addition, we could remove it temporarily, with the following steps:

  1. Press F12 tool, then under DOM Explorer, right click on the share item in the webpage, then select Inspect element;
  2. This would highlight the item code in the DOM Explorer, right click on the row of the code, and choose delete element

This would remove the item from the current session, but a refresh would get the share icon back.

We may consider submit an idea on this, in the following website:
