Publishing a Power BI Project (PBIP) with one dataset and multiple reports
HI pstrombe,
You can publish the first report to power bi service side, then you can get data from the semantic model that first report created with live connection mode and design correspond contents and publish.
After these steps, you will have to report that design based on one model.
In addition, you can also try to directly design the second report based on the first report models on power bi service.

Thanks for the response!
The approach you described would certainly work in some cases but unfortunately not in ours. I would like to have a local copy of the entire workspace that can be connected to either a production or development database.
With your approach, I would need to have a separate online workspace for develpoment and production, deploy the datasets separately from the reports and manage the connections between reports and datasets manually (in addition to managing the connections between datasets and databases). This is actually our current setup that I was trying to get rid of by using Power BI Projects.
It seems that Power BI Projects don't (yet) support the functionality I'm looking for - back to the drawing board it is 😞
