RE: Open PBIX file as read-only

I want users in the organization to not do any editing or changes to the dashboards, so read-only feature will be of great assistance.

RE: Open PBIX file as read-only

To expand on this, it would be really useful in an environment like ours where a team of users might be editing dashboards on behalf of a company and would avoid lengthy edits being lost due to no notification of another user using the file.

I want to let users in my company view what I'm working on in Power BI Desktop and not accidentally modify or delete it!

This feature would be help to allow calibration between client and dashboard developer. The Client could look at the work done so far and provide feedback before publishing.

RE: Open PBIX file as read-only

Allow to Save File as read-Only. So, if shared a PBIX file no one can manipulate the reports.
Only allow dataset to be refreshed.
