Turn Off Data Export
Is there a way to turn off the new data export feature for a particular data set? There is some sensitive data we have on PowerBI and we want people to have access to reports from this data but we do...

Also, is there a way to allow export of summarized data, but restrict underlying data?
As mentioned above, there would be no point in restricting the export of data that is already on the sceen, but the underlying data shows more than what is on the screen.

For anyone interested, I managed to disable the export of underlying data by replacing agregates in my table with measures that do the same thing.
E.g. I have an "Amount" field in the Values bucket. I wanted the average of "Amount", so instead of selecting Average from the drop-down list, I created a measure that returned the average and put that in the Values bucket.
Hope that helps anyone with the same issue!
