v-sihou-msft ok thank you!!
but why when I log in into powerBI online I can see my datasets and when I login into powerBI for Desktop I can't see them?
Should not be synchronized these 2 things? I mean I can save it and import like you told me , but I have already created dataset on MY ACCOUNT, so I should be able to see the same datasets and reports and table online and also on Desktop app.
Doesn't have more sense to have it like this?

When login in Power BI Desktop, it's just for publishing the report onto Power BI service. We can't directly view the published content within Power BI Desktop since it's just a design tool.
