Updating Report Created by Someone Else

Hi Anonymous
You defenitly need to get Admin access permission to the workspace and the dataset. Ask your Azure adminstrator to allow you that.
Hi Anonymous
Once you have full access to the workspace you will also have full access to the dataset. Download the dataset to your desktop and edit your measures. Publish the report back to the workspace.
Thanks aj1973 . I have Admin rights and downloaded the dataset. Some measures I'm able to view and edit, while others I cannot. Do you know why I cannot see some?
Will having access to the dataset resolve this? I believe the report is using DirectQuery to an Azure Hive database.

Yes sir, direct query mode connection has its limitations

That's why Import mode is some how better and before starting building reports we always have to evaluate the cons and pros of either mode of connection.
Glad you made the first step.
