Who sees what in Power BI — and how are reports shared securely?

Power BI

As insights become more accessible, the need for control increases. Power BI makes it possible to share reports securely, with clear permissions and full visibility into who can see what — without complex administration or unsecured files.

A common concern about visibility

As reports become more accessible, a natural question often arises: “Who sees what?”
Concerns about visibility and sensitive information are common — but permissions in Power BI are designed to be clear and controlled.

Permissions made simple

In Power BI, access is managed so that:

  • the right person sees the right data
  • different roles can see different levels of information
  • sensitive information is protected

Users don’t need to understand the underlying technology — only that the right information is shown.

Roles and access

For example:

  • leadership can see overall data
  • managers can see their specific areas
  • employees can see relevant sections

All within the same report, but with different views.

Secure sharing of reports

Reports aren’t freely shared as files. Instead, they’re shared through the Power BI service, where:

  • access can be controlled
  • changes are logged
  • sharing can be revoked

This provides better control than traditional reports in Excel or PDF.

Control without added administration

Power BI provides strong security without creating extra manual work. Permissions follow roles and structure, making sharing secure even over time.
