Turn off Explore this Data feature
- 2 years ago
The docs specify that you can only use it with build permission. You might want to take a look and check if you are sharing to users in the correct way. A regular viewer user, shouldn't have that permission.
Check the PowerBi App setting when sharing. At the last step under advanced settings there is something about this.
I hope that helps,
Hi. I'm sorry but no. You can't turn that off. However, it's a preview feature, that means it's still been developed, things can changed in a near future. I suggest checking the docs to keep up to date: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/explore-data-service

We have just been alerted to this. So our engineer had a look at the Admin Portal and found the following.
In the service, click the settings cog.
Under Governance and Insights (at the bottom) click Admin Portal.
In Tenant Settings, there is a grey banner stating "there are new or updated tenant settings. Expand to review changes". Click the dropdown arrows.
There is an option 2nd from bottom, an option "users with view permission can launch explore". Click this.
Then at the top there's a disable button.
We will get the user who alerted us to this issue to test, but it seems a logical process.
