Normally when you don't have any data in the powerbi, publish option is greyed out like the screenshot you provided.

If this is not case, please share more infor as mentioned earlier.

Hi @Anonymous 

Need a bit more info. Why exactly can't you publish a report?  What happens when you try?  Are you getting an error message?

Regards

Phil

I can't publish the report because the button "Publish" is disabled
