Deployment Pipelines
Hi all,
I have been trying to deploy my PBIP report and semantic model from a "dev" workspace to a "UAT" workspace using deployment pipelines. The deployment works fine for the semantic model, but not the report. I keep getting an error. I have tried several times to no avail. Does anyone have a solution to this issue?
Hi Anonymous , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
Currently deployment pipelines don’t support PBIP files, especially from Git-connected workspaces (Overview of Fabric deployment pipelines - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn). While your semantic model deploys, the report fails because pipelines are built for PBIX-based workflows, not PBIP.
Since you're using Azure DevOps and Git, the correct approach is to deploy using Git sync or Power BI REST APIs—not pipelines. That way, you keep your CI/CD intact without switching to PBIX.

Thank you.I think that is the plan.
Hi Anonymous
What happens if you take your PBIP report and save it back as a pbix report and upload it to your dev workspace and then try and deploy using the deployment pipelines. Will that then work.
