Enable me to allow Consumers of the 'Publish to Web' embedded link the ability to download the data. Similar to with report viewing/creating in the service or desktop that we can select download from the '...' more actions of the visual.

RE: Publish to Web - enable data download feature

I thought of this to be a default function and was disappointed in Power BI to know that it's not there. This is, of course, a mandatory option to provide, If power BI team wants to provide an option to publish to the web. The end-user will always need that data to use at some other place either for their own reports or for other purposes. My organization was excited to use Power BI, now, after this lacking of the feature, we are considering alternatives.

For those who live in areas where compliance with 'Accessibility requirements' are mandatory, this would be of great benefit. There is an obvious challenge with not wanting ALL published content to have this feature available but if there could be a setting in the desktop editor or AppWorkspace prior to Publish to Web this would be great.

This would greatly enhance the value of PowerBI within my organisation, as we want a solution that allows end users to download data from a public website

I'm responsible to run an information system which is supposed to give access to the public to dam safety data in Brasil. Without permitting them to export the data, I'll probably have to seek for another tool to publish the data.

when I presenting the Published Dashboard, most people asking, is it possible to export the data?
hence, it will be perfect if this feature accommodate.
I was being waiting for this feature implemented since last year.
