Power Bi as a reporting tool for our web app
- 8 years ago
It depends of how are you developing. If you do a report and other developer is the Pro User you must use his credentials and workspace to embed into your app or you have to give the full report to him for embedding purposes. In conclusion, you can have one pro license for all your team but only with your account will be possible embed into your app.
Hi randyminder
Sure, you can do this and more!
Please check this link: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-developer-embed-sample-app-owns-data/
You must download Power BI Desktop, there you can do your report and after that you must publish it. For embedding purpose you (as developer) must have a pro License to do that. https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-developer-embedding/
If you need more adivces just tell me
Hope this helps you

Thank you! You said, " For embedding purpose you (as developer) must have a pro License to do that". Does this mean that every developer on our team needs a Pro license to develop reports for our app, or is just a single license sufficient for the entire team?

Hi randyminder
To do reports in Power BI Desktop is not necessary to have a Pro license. The Pro License is required when you want to embed this reports (made in Power BI Desktop) into your app. See this link : https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-free-vs-pro/

Thank you. My question wasn't about a Pro license for the desktop version. It was for using the embedded version. Do we need just a single pro license or one for every developer who might be developing reports?
