Anonymous - If they have Enterprise Edition with SA then they can use that. If not, then no. Power BI Premium comes with a license for Power BI Report Server.

May i know if any official webpage / document as supporting for the statement of "Power BI Premium comes with a SQL license for Power BI Report Server." ?

As I seem only can found the page to mentioned "Power BI Report Server is part of software assurance benefit of SQL Enterprise Edition", but no for Power BI Report Server.

Thanks!
