Requiring Power BI Pro
I just got this from the June update;
"Changes to Power BI Free are coming on June 1, 2017.
This update will provide you with enhanced data capacity and refresh rates, as well as unlimited access to all data sources. Dashboard sharing will no longer be part of Power BI Free, but will still be available with Power BI Pro"
Going forward, we will improve the free service to have the same functionality as Power BI Pro, but will limit sharing and collaboration features to only Power BI Pro users.
The source of your data is not relevant to the licensing of PowerBI.com If you want to share Excel data for free, then send them the Excel spreadsheet. If you want to share using the excellent new features offered by PowerBI.com, then you can do so for just $9.99 per user per month.
