I have a report with several tables and matrixes. I need the visual headers with more options that allow end users to export data, but it is not available in the web reading version (the report is published to web)...
It works in both desktop and workspace.
Just not the web reading version...
I have turned on the visual headers for all of them.
I didn't hide headers or restrict the export.
All my other visuals have headers, just not the tables and matrixes. Is there anyway I can fix it and allow export of data?
BTW, I have checked some of my old reports which used tables and matrixes. All of them works just fine. Only this new one built under the new desktop version Version: 2.88.1385.0 64-bit (December 2020) has the issue.
Thank you,
Sunny

Hi, @Anonymous
According to your description and sample picture, I can understand your problem. You can not find the “More option” to export data when you open the report with the link of “Publish to web”.
I don’t think it’s an issue because Microsoft has mentioned it in the limitation document:
In my opinion, Microsoft banned this option for security reasons, because when you publish a report to the Internet, everyone who gets the link can open it. If they can still get the right to export data from the visual in your report, then your data will have no security at all.
More limitations of “Publish to web”
