      Hi,

       

      That person is my boss who sometimes asks me to make changes to the report which I make within Power BI Service but I assumed that when I save the changes my boss would see it when he refreshed the page but that does not happen.

       

      Help me Please and Thanks

        jgil ,

         

        That depends on how your are sharing it. 

        If you are editing it online just save and update your workspace app.

         

        if you are editing it on your desktop, you have to publish it and update your workspace app.

         

        How are you sharing it ?

    Hi jgil ,

    For your image and description, it seems like you share a report with your boss directly

    1. If you and your boss have the same tenant, you can add the e-mail and share with him directly. He with see the shared report under 'Shared with me' menu.(For example, both of you and your boss tenant are like [email protected])
    2. If you and your boss have different tenant, you should share with him by your tenant url which is in the right corner of pwoer bi service(? -> About power bi) after you add him as a guset in Azure portal.

    By these ways, after you make changes on your report, the person who you shared just need to refresh web page and will see the newest content about this report.

    Related Microsoft documents attached that hope to help you too:

    1. Share reports 
    2. Azure B2B share

      Hi,

       

      We have the same domain, but when I make changes online to the report already shared he cannot see those changes, I don't know what happens or what I'm not doing correctly.

       

      Thanks for the support

        It happened to me also. Sometimes when we make changes in the report online using "Edit" and then "Save" it, others who have kept the report open in their web browser may not see the changes. We have resolved the issue by asking the users to either close their browser and open it again or by refreshing the page (not the report, refreshing/reloading the report page itself) 

         

        Though there is no explanation as to why this happens, it can be solved this way. We have to just reload the report. It will work fine.

         

        I have seen a preview feature called "Automatic Page Refresh" under the menu  File->Options and Settings->Options->Preview Features. I am not sure whether turning on this option will resolve this issue as I have not tried it. You may explore this option to see how it works.
