Connect one pbix file to several workspaces
StephaneOH,
In your scenario, you can create a App workspace in Power BI Service, add these users as members of the App workspace and grant them edit permission.
This way, you can publish the PBIX file to this App workspace, and users can use the dataset to create their reports and get updates you made.

Thank you for your anwser Lydia. I am hoping to have several workspaces for the different user groups. For example our finance team would have a finance workspace with all of their reports and our development team a development workspace different from the finance workspace. Yet they both want to build off of the funding data which I would maintain in one Funding.PBIX file.
I am hoping that everytime I make an update to the Funding.PBIX file those changes are automatically picked up in both the finance and the development workspaces, and any other workspace that contains the Funding dataset. At this point it sounds like that is not possible and I would have to push my changes to every workspace, right? There is no automated way to do that, is there?
Many thanks
If your pbix file connect to casv/excel file, in your scenario, you can upload PBIX file to OneDrive for Business, then use "Get data->Files->OneDrive for Business" to connect to the PBIX file in Power BI Service, after that turn on OneDrive refresh.
This way, when you make changes(e.g, create measures, create new visualizations) in the PBIX file, the changes will be reflected in Power BI Service, usually within one hour.

Lydia
