You have to give the user a Role Permission which allows to edit the reports. Its similar to your Native mode SSRS permissions. Go to report manager and manage the role for the user which allwos to edit. Either you can customize or use the pre defined roles 

Refer - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/security/role-definitions-predefined-roles.

Hoep this helps.

 

I need to be able to share within the Power BI service with Power BI Pro? We do not have Power BI Premium or Power BI Report Server?
