@Greg_Deckler Thanks for your quick response Greg.

Can you refer me some articles please, which are reliable and can be referred for the implementation?

@Anonymous Well, .pbit files there isn't much to it, just store things in your favorite version control system. Otherwise:

PowerBI - CICD using Azure DevOps - Microsoft Power BI Community

Automate your deployment pipeline, the Power BI Application lifecycle management (ALM) tool - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Deployment pipelines - automation and Azure DevOps/GitHub integration - Power Platform Release Plan | Microsoft Docs

@Anonymous Most frequent thing I have seen is to use pbit files and github/sharepoint/whatever. More advanced is Azure DevOps and Power BI Pipelines.
