Needs VotesAbility to Disable option for user to export hidden tabs (PDF & PowerPoint)

Can we please have the ability to REMOVE the option for the user to export hidden tabs. Maybe within a Report's Settings (or even tennant Admin Portal) have a setting for "Allow/disable users to export hidden tabs"
The issue i'm facing is that a number of my reports have hidden tabs that contain either tooltips, drill-through pages or WIP pages and I hate the thought that users of my reports can see those pages if they choose to "include hidden pages' in an export to PDF or PowerPoint.

Because of this inability to control export of hidden tabs to pdf we cannot enable PDF export for users, which in some cases is a dealbreaker (they need pdfs or other "proof" for external compliance)This is A MUST FEATURE

This is the must fucntionality and Microsoft can easily fix this issue. I have couple of pages which I used for internal analysis and don't want someone to download those pages.Request Microsoft team to resolve this issue.
RE: Ability to Disable option for user to export hidden tabs (PDF & PowerPoint)
Why is there an option to hide reports/tabs if end-users can see the hidden objects? This bug was reported in April 2019, it's now 2023 and still not fixed. Is it not considered a bug?
RE: Ability to Disable option for user to export hidden tabs (PDF & PowerPoint)
I do not understand the point of allowing users to see a hidden page? If a developer has hidden it, it is certainly because he doesn't want the other to see it. This needs to be fixed ASAP

Microsoft, please give us this feature.

Absolutely 100% a must have. Should be able to be controlled at the org level, workspace admin, and report creator level.
RE: Ability to Disable option for user to export hidden tabs (PDF & PowerPoint)
I agree, this feature is important and need to be added as soon as possible. Hidden pages should not be exported.
RE: Ability to Disable option for user to export hidden tabs (PDF & PowerPoint)
Can this be fixed please? Agree with all other comments.
We don't want end-users to see work in progress, instructions etc. contained on hidden pages (and end-users are just confused by it as well).
RE: Ability to Disable option for user to export hidden tabs (PDF & PowerPoint)
This is extremely urgent in my opinion! There's no point in having the possibility to hide the pages, if you are "dressed naked" in the export option! I have lots of debug pages, tests, new features under development... there's no point in having end-users seeing this!

Agree with other comments. We have a multi page external customer report, but some pages are used only by the internal account manager to assess end of month sales summaries prior to monthly face to face meetings with the external customer. Also some pages detail the report workings and are only intended for internal staff viewing. Highly undesirable for the external customer to see these so an option to prevent this being exported to PDF would be appreciated.
