Hi Adam, it's possible to retrieve access and permission information for workspaces via Power BI REST API. How can I programmatically retrieve the same information on object level (Reports, Dashboards, ...)? I know the info must be somewhere but I was not able to find it anywhere :/ Extremely helpful content in every video. Thanks!
Hey Adam thanks for the video. I tried distributing reports as published apps but it rendered unusable as one workspace can have only one app. Or did I get it wrong?
Hi Adam, thank you for sharing this is very interesting but is there a resume (matrix) to get what licence is needed to share by types and what licence is needed to consume the report/dashboard (edit and/or just view)
Hi Mehdi, unsecure publish to web = no licence. Sharing Reports/Dashboards/Apps = Pro or Premium (with premium the end user doesn't need a licence). Sharing via Power BI Embedded in a website is a different licencing structure based on page interactions azure.microsoft.com/en-au/pricing/details/power-bi-embedded/
Hey guys, your all videos are just awesome, but can anybody help me out for, "is it possible to share power BI report with non pro license users using share point? or they should have pro license to access that reports in share point also?"
Hey Adam, Great video and thank you. Currently MS Teams doesn't support the new "APPS" security. Meaning......when I publish a couple reports in my app workspace to an app and then give users access to the app. They aren't able to view the data when I embed it in teams (they just see X's on all the visuals). BUT when I make those same users a member of the actual "APP WORKSPACE" and not just the published app..... then they can see the report in teams. Do you know if they plan on fixing this?
Hi ,I have a question: I shared a report that I created with my manager with full permisision but still he can not on-demand refresh the dataset (and visual ) . it works on scheduled refresh but not on demand. is that even possible for a shared dataset or report in powerBI? we need end user to be able to refresh data in Demand. thanks
Hi Adam. I have an app to which I have given access to 3 people in my organization. Everytime I update the app, I have re-enter the email IDs in the "permission" section of the app. Why is this happening? Any work around this?
Is the PUBLISH TO WEB option removed?? Please HELP. Want to publish a Dashboard on my website for public use. It has no sensitive Info as such. PLEASE HELP.
Same here - our whole issue with Power BI right now is that the BI team pipeline, report creation, shared data sets, source/version control, has zero integration with Visual Studio and TFS/Azure DevOps... especially for those of us who can't use the PBI service and are working with PBI Report Server. SSDT really needs to be updated to support PBI report development.
OK, great, but what if I have to share report with sales, with warehouse, with finance etc... do all of them need some kind of a pro license? I mean if that is true it is really stupid requirement....
Hi All, Am trying to share an report with my external user who is using Power Bi Pro 60 Days trail and the external user is having xyz@onmicrosoft.com account. My question is as user is not having organisation domain account, if am sharing report with the external user how he/she will be able to view the report shared with external user. looking for your kind help.
WhoWouldJesusBomb Have you tried? don’t think it’s possible. Publishing to SharePoint and to Web is a completely different stuff and is done differently. Publish to web is for publicly available pages, which is not the case for share point.
@WhoWouldJesusBomb I was pretty sure publishing to web does not support row level security and still can't believe MS left such a loophole. I will try sharing with people w/o Pro licence on Monday.
Hello, thank you for this video! How can I share a report and don't let the person edit my report ? (I want them to only view it and use it but not touch anything of how it is built). Thank you !
I have 2 reports: one is a financial report another is a sales pipeline report. There are 3 kinds of users: first need access only to financial report, second - only to sales and the third kind - to both. I am struggling to understand what is the best way for me to do this. I could make 2 reports in the same Workspace and share them with different users. Another option - is to publish 2 separate Apps, but then - it requires 2 separate Workspaces. It is confusing - please advise. Thank you!
Today that is a challenge. The general approach I would recommend today would be to have two different workspaces and 2 separate apps. This will get a little easier when shared datasets are available to only have a single data model, but the distribution piece will still exist. Another option would be to go down the embedded route to fully control the experience.
Hi - Great video - thanks! However like Noah, I wasn't looking for "consumer" collaboration, but rather for those working on, developing, maintaining the PBIX file itself. What are the best ways to do that? -- and while I haven't fully explored it, I think the answer to my own question is the App Workspace!
Correct. From a report developer perspective, the App Workspace is where that work will happen after the report is published from Power BI Desktop. And then from there, you enable the consumers through features like Apps and sharing. Dev/Test/Prod would be done from the app workspace perspective. Or at least Dev/Test. You may take the approach of using the published App as "Prod".
What I find in my organization is that Apps provide a much better user experience. They can see all the Apps they have access to in one easy to view and searchable window. No longer are they searching through 12 work spaces for the report they need.
Stephen Lessmann Ok, i’ve tried it. I understand that each time that I publish the report from PowerBI desktop after I make some changes, I need to Update App also...
@@mshparber Yes you do. I know it can be a pain but I use it to treat my companies release like a trust dev/test/prod environment with release versions.
You are in a tough spot. The only way to view a report with no authentication is Publish to Web which is not secure at all and recently had some changes to be more restrictive. Publish to Web is your only option. If you do use that, please don't put sensitive data within it as it is an open URL with no authentication.
Sir ur tutorials feels like some kind of advertisement going on where u can only see features but dont understand what going on actually behind the scenes ! please go slow and step by step .

Does the secure embeded code require viewers to have Power BI Pro license?
is that PUBLISH APP button only appear if you go with PRO ?
If I share my report by App will my users need a pro or premium license? Also is there any other way I can share my reports by email with free users?

Is there some automate way to add user mail ids to the security group to whom app access will be given
Does power BI pro possible share report to share point to clients/ users without power BI pro license as author?
How can i share my power BI report on social media for ex. LinkedIn?
Do all other users need pro licence if I share it read only in apps , such as if I make dashboard and share it that way

Great videos, how to share if a person is external to my organization? Like with Gmail account for example :)
Thanks
When you embedded in share point..do the users need licenses?
I was looking for sharing dataset also
What if multiple users try or edit the same report at same time in a Work space
-Is it possible
-If possible, which report will be saved

Would love a video on how to handle teams of Power BI authors working on the same report (.pbix).

How do collaborators, create dashboards and dashboards
Hi All,
Am trying to share an report with my external user who is using Power Bi Pro 60 Days trail and the external user is having xyz@onmicrosoft.com account.

What licensing is required for sharepoint? If I am a pro user and want to share with colleagues. All need pro or premium capacity? Thanks
To view reports embedded into Sharepoint page a user needs pro licence or premium.

Apps are the preferred way of distribution. Apps provide a read-only view of the item.

Wish this was available without a Pro license

I'm not sure what report you are referring to.
Please see at 7:00 till 7:14
PBI distro strategy is all over the place.
Thanks! Still hard to understand what are the advantages of apps
What I find in my organization is that Apps provide a much better user experience. They can see all the Apps they have access to in one easy to view and searchable window. No longer are they searching through 12 work spaces for the report they need.
Stephen Lessmann Thanks! Do you need to give permissions both in a report and the app that has it? Or just in the app?
@@mshparber Just the app. We publish it when possible to IT security groups to save even more time when we hire new people.
