Open PBIX File from SharePoint

Hello all,

 

Is it possible to store and access a PBIX file from SharePoint via the PowerBi Desktop?

 

My reason for asking is that I have previously used my OneDrive, but I've started to run out of space for the number of reports and other files I have stored on there. I've migrated a few PBIX reports onto SharePoint, but I cannot work out how to open the files through the desktop app to continue working on them. The only solution I've found seems to involve downloading the file and re-uploading them.

 

Can anyone assist with this?

 

Thanks.

    Hi Saes 

     

    Sure you can store PBIX files same as any other files in SharePoint folders and access these, just sync the folder.
