Unable to Save Changes in PBIX File when shared
Hello v-karpurapud ,
Yes, the issue has been resolved. It had to do with the outdated version of PBI my supervisor had. He deleted it and reinstall the app and now he is able to edit and I published it as the steward for the online APP.
I appologize it took so long to respond.

Hi Roger,
One possibility is that your boss has editing rights to the OneDrive file but is opening the PBIX file in a way that doesn't allow collaborative editing. Unlike Word or Excel, Power BI Desktop files (.pbix) generally don't support multiple users making and saving changes to the same file simultaneously. In many cases, the file must be downloaded locally, edited, and then saved as a separate version before changes can be shared back.
You may also want to verify that the file isn't marked as read-only and that your boss has full edit permissions within OneDrive. I'm interested to hear if others in the community have found a better solution for collaborative PBIX development.
Best of luck!
