Following the installation of Power BI Desktop, the 'Allow end users to export data with current layout and summarized data form the Power BI service or Power BI Report Server is selected by default under Options -> Current File -> Report settings -> Export data. Suggesting 'Don't allow end users to export any data from the service or Report Server' is selected by default instead to enhance data protection measures.


As a result, Power BI Developers will need to explicitly allow users to export data in the scenario where they want to provide users with the option to download visual data.
