Open Previous version of a pbix file in Power bi report sever

Hi: I upload a report in Power Bi Report server @ my work. Everymonth when I update the report I keep the file name same, which means it overwrites the previous version. How can I get a copy of the previous version of the pbix file? Our Power Bi report server is not the Power bi premium. It is acquired through SQL server enterprise edition.

 

In SharePoint I know that even if i do the exact same thing as above, I can still retrieve the previous version. 

Thanks.

I'm sorry but there is no way of doing this (other than getting your DBA to restore the entire PBI Report Server database using a backup from last month if they have one, but that would rollback every report, not just the one you want)

 

When you save a file with the same name in PBIRS it overwrites the file. Report Server does not keep document history the way that Sharepoint can.

Thanks for your response. Greatly appreciated.
