Restrict manual dataset refresh

Hi, 

 

I would like to disable my colleagues from refreshing a datset manually within my workspace. 

They should still be able to refresh the dataflows wihin the workspace. 

 

The Flows and the dataset must be within the same workspace. 

Do you have any tips? 

 

Thanks you very much.

You could try adding as a viewer onto the workspace and grant additional permissions for the dataflows themselves. I have a few workspaces set up that way (they are added as a viewer but additional permissions for other reports & datasets)
