Please allow guest users to utilize Analyze in Excel. Currently guest users are unable to create customized views of the data available. There are features available in pivot tables that cannot currently be created in Power BI Desktop or Service. This would reduce the numerous customization requests we receive from guest users.

RE: Allow guest users to utilize Analyze in Excel

This is very important feature and kind of deal breaker for my company. Should be prioritized

RE: Allow guest users to utilize Analyze in Excel

As a consultant I'm a guest user in a lot of my customers tenants. This is perfect for maintenance and development of PowerBI reports.

Since we can leverage the power of PowerBI in Excel too, it would be great if I could build some Excel reports on PowerBI datasets as a guest user. Currently this is not possible.

Please consider the development of this feature.

This is the latest update I can see but we need to enable all of the following

Guest users cannot use Analyze in Excel
Guest users cannot be @mentioned in commenting (coming soon)
Guest users cannot use subscriptions (coming soon)
