shared reports Desk top

can you share your report from the desk top version to another user and they are allowed to refresh the report and make changes?

  • If you are talking about sharing outside of the service, the PBI Desktop produces a .pbix file.  You can send this file to another user and they can open it up and access your data, visuals, code, etc.  They will be able to change all of that.  If they have access to the datasource your report is based on, they can update the credentials, file path etc and reload the data from that source.  

     

    Thanks!

        If this is what you want, then just give them a copy of  your .pbix that you have created with the Power BI Desktop software.
