Question on Microsoft Fabric
The link will allow access only to those who have been granted permission at the workspace . For example, if I receive the link, I will not be able to access the report.

Indeed, all report-sharing functionality will be blocked until purchasing a Pro license.
So the other party needs to be either pro or premium for he/she can see and analyze the pbix files in the published format after the trial 60 days period.
But correct me if I'm wrong, for first or non user if I shared the link to the published pbix filed will they be automatically be enrolled into 60 days trial after clicking and accepting the link?

I'm not sure I understand the question correctly. A PBIX file is local and opens on a desktop. In response to your other post, I attached a PBIX file for you. You can open it regardless of your license, as long as you're working locally on your desktop.
To share files in the cloud (service), a user needs a PRO/PPU license, either trial or non-trial. If the user didn't have a trial user previously, they can join a free trial period.
I'm not sure if this works with a link you send, so I recommended testing it on a test user.

Thanks. Totallly makes sense.
1. "To share files in the cloud (service), a user needs a PRO/PPU license, either trial or non-trial. If the user didn't have a trial user previously, they can join a free trial period"....Just for my understanding...when I publish the pbix and share the link...the person who received the link that don't have any power bi will be enrolled into the 60 days trial when he/she click the link in order to open the file. Is this right?
2. Can the person I shared the link can view my edit my pbix if I allocate him/her as viewer?
3. Do you know what is the use of the semantic file? Can I delete it?

Hi Anonymous
1. As I mentioned twice in previous responses make a test to check.2. No Viewer can't modify the report
3. In Power BI Service, a semantic model is a structured way of organizing data to make it easy for users to analyze and visualize. It includes tables, relationships, and measures, providing a user-friendly interface to interact with complex data. This model helps ensure data consistency, improves query performance, and supports better data governance. If you will delete it , the report will be deleted too.

Thank you so much! I'm a bit of a security freak so just to make myself at ease. If I shared the link of the published pbix to a person then the public will not be able to view it if they don't have it.
Is that right?
