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,
I think this issue is still not resolved! We tunred off this feature at the tenant settings. So in the properties of the semantic layer it is greyed out (because it is handled at tenant level). Still my users can use Exploration and so see all the content in the Cube.
Also i don't understand why there are not more users complaining. This is a major Security issue I think. In our case we made a portal with only reports that can be viewed by our users. This way they will never see the Fact and dimensions in the Cube.
Now with this feature all this data is exposed!
Are there not more users with this issue? Or am I missing out on something.
Any help is appreciated

correcting my reply:
looks like it is working for users that have access through the published App only.
tested with my test user that doesn't have access to the workspace and only can access the reports through published App and the Explore button is not visible.
when i'm using the user with admin permissions to workspace, i can see the Explore button
the same report,
the user that has access through App only
admin user with access to workspace
