Look for instructions to save Power BI Project file .pbir to .pbix

[jessiecai0405]

Dear community,

First of all, I would like to say thank you for having the Power BI Poject Project (.pbip) features. It has brought our devlopment to the next level! Please keep it and it would be great if it can expand with more popularity.

I have one question related to this 'Power BI Project' file. Is there any way that we can assamble the .pbir file back to .pbix without using 'save as' function in Power BI desktop? The whole idea is to automate the report modification in program. However, this last 'save as' step is not supported in program. Any instruction would be much appreciated!!

Thanks,

Jessie

Not at the moment.  Maybe they deliver that together with the TMDL format support.
