Can't export underlying data!

Hey,

 

I have an issue with extracting underlying data, it was enabled before, but now it only gives me the option to export the summarized data and not the underlying one. I researched a lot and everything seems fine to me in my settings. please help.

Hi @salafoo 

 

You need to enable build permissions on the dataset for the users who need to extract the underlying data. 

 

For more limitations, please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/power-bi-visualization-export-data

Hi @salafoo,

 

I assume you already had a look at the Power BI Tenant settings for Export Data and Export to Excel?

Also have a look at the limitations and considerations:

Export using Underlying data won't work if:

 

  • the version is older than 2016.

  • the tables in the model don't have a unique key.

  • an administrator or report designer has disabled this feature.
