How can I import a .pbix file to PowerBi Desktop

[Chiransj]

Hi All,

Is it possible to import a .pbix file to PowerBi desktop application?

I haven't connect it to a PowerBi Service Because I have an login issue with that service and I have raised it under Service Forum.

Please help.

Thanks and regards,
Chiranthaka

Hi Chiransj,

PBIX file is not a data source which means you can not import it while you can open it directly using power bi.

@Chiransj when you say import what do you mean?

Import means I want to import the charts, and the dashboard to the workspace so that I can publish them.
