Sharing data sets
Hi jerics99,
Content Packs are only available when you and your colleagues have Power BI Pro. Reference: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-organizational-content-packs-introduction/ .
As you want to share a dataset with colleagues that use the free license, you can copy the PBIX file out to a folder and share the folder to your colleagues, from my point of perspective, this is what smoupre means by sharing. There is no option in Power BI desktop to share PBIX file.
Thanks,

Hi Jerics99,
I am also facing the same challenge of creating a organisation content pack and asking my colleagues to download.
The downloading portion is successful. Power BI does not seen to allow refreshing the data by my colleauges using their local excel file.
Did you manage to find a solution to this ?
Appreciate if you can share the details.
Best
