Connecting to Power BI ReportServer

Sorry, I am sure this question has been asked before, but I could not find it.  

 

How do I connect Power BI Desktop to my on-prem Power BI ReportServer?  I keep getting prompted to enter my work email to login into the Power BI service.  I thought I would not need to login into the Power Bi service if I have an on-prem ReportServer.

 

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Publish Power BI reports to the report server for others to access need Power BI Pro licenses. In desktop, you need to sign in with account has Pro license, then publish the report to report server.

Nevermind.  I found a post that mentioned "Power BI Desktop (Report Server)" which lead me to the link below.
