HI All
A customer hesitate to allow to use dataflow for Power Bi, becuase when this is allowed, all the users of the tenant can use this feature. And the administator is afraid that the users will do some mess, when duplicating data, DWH,... Currently in the tenant setting, there is not any limitation, to restrict this feature, like for other features of PBI to be allove to use only by some group of people.
The question is, what is the best practice to limit the usage of dataflow for power users of PBI. Is there any other posibilit how to restrict this?
thank you.

Hi. The only option of dataflows as tenant level is to prevent them for all organization. Sadly that's the only configuration for now.
The only way to prevent users creating dataflows would be removing the PRO licence, but that might be a problem if you don't have premium or if all your users are pbi developers.
Regarding good practices there are many nice articles from microsoft about that: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/dataflows/dataflows-best-practices
You can start right there
I hope that helps,
Happy to help!
