How to send pbix file along with data model

How  can i send the pbix file to the client with the data model , i'm using powerbi desktop.

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

When you use the Excel sheet, it is automatically set the Import mode for storage, so you could send the PBIX file and ask them to run it on their computer(that the power bi is installed.

(for your information, check the Storage mode) for your table in the Model tab and in the Property pane

Hi,

If you use the model as Import, it is enough to send the PBIX file to the client and ask them to download the power bi and run it on their computer.
