I want to share a dataset with another user in Power BI Service. Obviously I want him to see the data the dataset provides. But I'm concerned about the possibility of a leakage. Can the user who get's the shared dataset:

  • see the connection string details?
  • export the pbix?
  • edit the dataset in some way?
  • trigger an update?
  • share it with others?
  • delete it?

This depends on the end user's privileges as set by the administrator of the premium workspace if this is what you are referring to.

For more information on this please see the attached roles that can be granted on a workspace level:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-new-workspaces#roles-in-the-new-workspaces

You can also share individual reports on a read-only level in Power Bi service (premium workspace).

If you do not have a premium workspace (you plan to share using your personal workspace):

The user of the report needs to have Power Bi pro license - Find more information here:
