How can two developers work on a same pbix at the same time?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Two people can't work on same pbix file at the same time. But we can do the changes on the local files and later sync the changes.
In case if it is the visual changes you can copy paste the visuals from one file to another. In case if it is transform data changes then you can copy the query from advanced editor and paste it in the file wherein you wish to sync.
@Anonymous - please mark this as a solution and hit the thumbs up if it helps you. Thanks.

there is no such method to work parallel on same power bi file, what we did is used SharePoint file check-in and check out procedure, so when a user wants to work, it checks out the file, do his work, check back in and log his changes and then next user can take over it. it keeps the changelog and version history and avoids multiple users to work on at the same time.
