Re: Power BI August 2026 Feature Summary

We will be expanding the controls here to make this more explicit. A per-semantic-model setting is in the works (the rumors are true) and should be shipping very soon. 
 
For the moment, if you have concerns about users with only view access being able to answer data questions from the reports & underlying models, there is an explicit setting for this in the M365 admin center (called out in the docs here: Fabric IQ in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat (Frontier) - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn).
