Share Report with Coworkers without Pro License
- 4 years ago
Hi, chris-thompson
I just realized I overlooked this. PowerBI Pro licenses are required, otherwise they will only be allowed to view the content in their 'My Workspace'.
The biggest difference between Free and Pro is that with Pro you can share your data, reports, and dashboards with other users who also have a Power BI Pro license.
You should consider 'Power BI Premium Capacity' or 'Publish to web', which enables unlimited distribution of your content without the need for consumers to have Pro licenses.

If you want to share a report within an organization, you and your colleagues need to have a PowerBI Pro or Premium license.
When you said that you had previously shared a report without a license.... i believe that your colleague was probably using a trial version of the software.
If they dont have a Pro or Premium license then I think your only option is to Publish the report to web:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-publish-to-web
The limitation is that other people that will get the link, will also have access to the report
Yes her colleagues would have used under 60 days trial period.
