Collaborate in Power BI Desktop
Yeah, that's not going to work with Desktop. You'll both have to work in the Service and even then, not sure you can both edit a report simultaneously and not overwrite each other.

Is this still the case now ? or has there been other features added in ?
Also, is there a managment portal where one can track the different applications and who is creating what ?I am thinking of something similer to Qliksense QMC (the managent portal) where you can view all applications and who has created them.
Also in Qliksense the collaboration on the published reports worked by really, whehn ever a user wants to edit the report hes actually editing a copy made for him, and this copy becomes a community report while the main report is unchanged.
Is something like that possible ?
Thanks for the response. That's what I was afraid of. Yet another sub-par feature in a product that's mostly awesome. It's like getting a Dodge Charger with a Toyota 4-cylinder engine sometimes. ;-)
So far, we are experimenting with dividing up the report tabs between us with us both working in the Service. The theory is maybe if we're not both modifying the same tab at the same time it won't toss the changes. Maybe.
Yeah, the collaborative aspects of report development are not quite there yet.
You can say that again. After further experimentation, we've just had to conclude that only one of us can work on the report at a time. So, I'm back to developing it in Desktop, which makes me happy. ;-)
