Deploy common model to multiple reports
Hi everybody !
I have a common report that I must deploy in different countries. Each country report will have some specifities but will be based on the common report.
1 - Based on a database I made some transformations with power query (M).
2 - I created some measures with DAX
3 - I designed the pages of the common report.
I thought about a process in order to deploy evolutions or corrections :
1 - Copy the query (with advanced query editor) of the common report and past it on the deployed report
2 - Do the same with the DAX formulas (copy and past)
3 - Publish the deploied report
I think this process will be very time consuming (for 10 or more deployments) and I am asking for advises in order to take the best approach.
Thank you !

GJA , You can use a power bi file as a source in new versions. This means we can use the data model of a Power Bi file and create visuals on top of it.
Once you publish a Power BI file, you will be able to see that in your power bi datasets.
This will not share visuals. But power Bi allows you copy-paste of visual across files. Select all visual in a page and copy in another file, if needed
Thank you.
The power bi file as source looks like a good idea. I'll test it and tell you.
A combination of both solutions solved my problem.
1 - I publish a data model (pbix file) with row security level
2 - I create a report based on the data model
Thank you
Hi GJA ,
Did you try using Row-Level-Security at country level? For details on this refer following:

You can use a single dashboard to distribute in multiple countries. RLS allows you to achive this.
If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂
Thanks,
