Good day, everyone. Please is there a safer method of preventing an unauthorised person from accessing the powerquery advanced editor.

The reason been that, one may one to share  excel files, buh may not want other person from playing around or altering the code inserted in the query editor.Especially  with an unauthorised person. Is it possible ?

 

Thank you.

There is no safe or unsafe method. Only in PBI you can give access to reports with granular access to data, with no access to data sets, but this requires paid plans.
