Pro vs. Licensing question

robarivas

You can take a look at this document. There is a list of Power BI Pro content as below. If the analytic team share Pro content with free users, free users will not be able to see these contents.

• Data from a DirectQuery dataset, such asSQL Server Analysis Services tabular data,Azure SQL Database, Azure SQL Data Warehouse, or Apache Spark for HDInsight.
• Data from adataset that refreshes more frequently than daily.
• Data from a dataset that connects to on-premises data using thePower BI Gateway - Personal or the On-premises Data Gateway.
• Data (including reports, dashboards or tiles) from a dataset that usesRow-level security (RLS).
• A dashboard or report that's installed from anorganizational content pack.
• A dashboard, report, or dataset that's contained in agroup workspace.
• A dashboard that contains data streamed at a rate above 10k rows/hour.

But if the analytic team only share the content which only contains following items, both pro and free users can see them.

• A dashboard or report connected to content packs for services (e.g. Dynamics CRM, Salesforce, and Google Analytics).
• A dashboard or report with data imported from files such as Excel spreadsheets, Power BI Desktop, and CSV.
• Tiles pinnedfrom a report in SQL Server Reporting Services.
